Combining of Realistic and Anti-illusionist methods in Contemporary Theatre
Píza, Ludvík ; MUSILOVÁ, Martina (advisor) ; AUGUSTOVÁ, Zuzana (referee)
This bachelor thesis attempts to describe some of the staging methods based on combining realistic and anti-illusionist components in European contemporary theatre, specifically of the examples of Woodcutters by Krystian Lupa and Regulation of Intimacy by Jiří Havelka. The major part of this thesis focuses on the first theatre production and consists of analysis of Woodcutters, a novel by Thomas Bernhard, and its theatre adaptation. In both cases, I focus on the general structure of these pieces, their work with time and space and their performative aspects. The comparison aims to describe the main common as well as different features of the novel and the staging concept based on a performative model. The second part analyses the production Regulation of Intimacy and its staging concept of public confession. The aim is to depict the intentional usage of two opposing principles and the aesthetic experience it provides for the spectator. In the end, I am trying to sum up depicted staging methods that prove the possibility of effectively combining realistic and anti-illusionist elements that may strengthen each other, coexist and organically permeate.
What makes realism real?
Skala, Adam ; NEBESKÝ, Jan (advisor) ; SCHEJBAL, Milan (referee)
The work consists of two parts. The first one focuses on the phenomenon of realism and realist tendencies during the process of creating a stage production. The work explores the evolution of the propensity for realist representation in the course of history. It focuses especially on the modern realism of the German director Thomas Ostermeier. It also tries to examine realism in its social context and define its role in society‘s development. The second part focuses on author‘s personal experience during creation of stage productions mainly, but not entirely, in work done for the university.
