Abstract:
Theatre began outdoors, around fires, celebrating important passages, acknowledging the cycles of nature and the changes of seasons, and affirming our sense of community and the essential mystery of life. By recognizing theatre’s roots in ritual – in community celebration – we re-establish connection with things larger than ourselves and are revitalized. It is to these roots that the Caravan Farm Theatre, located on an 80-acre farm five miles northwest of Armstrong in the heart of B.C.’s Okanagan farming district, seeks to return. Since 1983, the Caravan Farm Theatre, formerly the horse-drawn

The article is dedicated to Belarusian theatre in Poland following the 2020 protests. The author examines the repertoire of exile theatre, studies both quantitative and qualitative aspects of its functioning within a foreign culture and a market-based economy. Independent Belarusian theatre, destroyed, banned, and exiled from its homeland, has been reborn in Poland. Over the past three seasons (2021–2024), thanks to the solidarity of the people of Polish theatre and support of the Polish state in the form of a system of grants and residencies, several new theatre groups and creative associatio

It attracted the involvement of actors, artists and dramatists of the period and performed in professional settings, including eight seasons at the Peacock Theatre and for each of the first four years of the Wexford Opera Festival.

Abstract:
The 2009 season marks the twentieth anniversary of one of Canada’s great theatre success stories — Bard on the Beach, in Vancouver. By any standard, Bard’s development from one show (Midsummer Night’s Dream) in a rented tent in 1990 to four plays in repertory in two spaces in 2009 is a remarkable history and one of which founder and artistic director Christopher Gaze (and his Board and colleagues) should be proud. What is as praiseworthy to me, however, is the contiguous artistic development of Bard performance; increasingly, over the past number of seasons, the shows have been original, innov

Abstract:
It is ironic that interest in the roots of ‘alternative comedy’ is probably greater than ever before just as the most successful of its exponents are moving, in commercial terms, firmly into the mainstream. Perhaps that process is inevitable – and perhaps the drift into sitcoms and voice-overs does not matter so long as there remains a ferment of new activity, jostling for the less lucrative exposure of the smaller venues and the new cabaret circuit.

Abstract:
With its groundbreaking score, unabashed romanticism, and scrappy sensibility, Rent was like a firecracker thrown into a hushed theater, turning heads and upending conventions. But if its unexpected success was the stuff of theatrical legend, the story of its making was a bittersweet one, with composer Jonathan Larson, a student of Sondheim's finally making his Off-Broadway debut, tragically dying on the night of the final dress rehearsal. Even decades later, Rent lives on as a warmly remembered chapter in Broadway history, yet the show is too often trivialized, reduced to parody, or dissected

But although the Daily News’s John Chapman, writing as editor of the Best Plays series, thought the theatrical year had been “not too bad,” he acknowledged that his colleagues generally put a less kind value on it. The public apparently agreed with the dissenters. Only one play ran for more than a year, and only four others ran even six months, with one of these, Gigi, still ending up in the loss column despite 219 performances.
