theatre materials/material theatres
- VENUE: Little Angel Theatre DATE: Thurs 5 Nov, 3.30pm
Join us to celebrate the publication of 'Theatre Materials/Material Theatres'.
For two intense days in April 2008, theatre-makers and academics gathered at the Central School of Speech and Drama to discuss the stuff of theatre. The Theatre Materials/Material Theatres conference ranged from the design of portable theatres to the explosion of street arts, the physics of materials to low-energy theatre lighting, the psychology of the spectator to the independence of the artist.
This beautifully illustrated book is both a record of the event and a continuation of discussions started there, with newly commissioned articles and visual essays by leading artists, writers and practitioners including Anne Bogart, Pamela Howard and Alan Read. It is published by the Centre for Excellence in Training for Theatre. For further details, please contact cett@cssd.ac.uk
This event is free and follows 'The Life of Paper' lecture/performance event.
