Laura, Joseph. "Rachel's Madcap Theater." ScholarWorks@UNO, 2014. http://scholarworks.uno.edu/td/1929.
Full textAbstract:
This paper will cover the making of my thesis film Rachel’s Madcap Theater. I will break down all of the interdisciplinary aspects and collaborations with other artists that formed the final film: screenwriting, production design, directing, cinematography, sound, music, and special effects. For each of these categories, when appropriate, I will compare and contrast the changes made during the main stages of filmmaking: pre-production (all decisions made before shooting begins), production (all decisions made while shooting the movie), and post-production (all decisions made after shooting ends). I will then provide self-analysis of my process in order to judge both the ultimate success of my thesis film (did I make the film that I originally intended to make?) and the strengths and weaknesses of my personal abilities.

Doe, Connor Bartlett. "Puppet Theater in the German-Speaking World." PDXScholar, 2010. https://pdxscholar.library.pdx.edu/open_access_etds/88.
Full textAbstract:
This work begins with a brief history of puppet theater in Germany. A look at important social aspects, pertinent philosophical discussions and the significance of puppet theater in the German literary tradition follow. The final chapter looks at Peter Schumann, a German puppeteer and artist who lives in America. In Germanistik, German puppet theater deserves a devoted place in the field of legitimate study in terms of its history, content and influence. Puppet theater's historical development in Germany represents the larger evolution of Germany. From ancient times up to the present day, this artistic form of representation has enjoyed an audience in the German-speaking regions. The evolution of puppet theater parallels Germany's quest for legitimacy as a nation and desire for cultural unification. A study of puppet theater thematizes the issue of popular cultural history. For most of its existence in Germany, puppet theater served as popular entertainment. The conception of folk art and folklore - which includes puppet theater - by the German Romantics led them to believe that folk artists possessed a mysterious authenticity inaccessible to Classicists and their narrowly-defined world of high art. Much German literature and thought from the 19th century onward shows a fondness for the Volk aspect of puppet theater. Puppet theater and its reception in German Romanticism helped to shape literary and philosophical themes that would lead to further recognition of puppetry as an art form and an integral aspect of German culture. In the 20th century, puppet theater took on bold new forms. Adapting to film, television, academia and the avant-garde, respected proponents of puppet theater brought the art form into the light of day. No longer did it merely consist of vulgar or mildly artistic street performances or as a vehicle for Romantic-era nostalgia. German puppet theater in the 20th century moved into the realm of mass culture with film and, more effectively, with television. It also gained footing in academia, eventually becoming a fully-recognized field of study as well as a performance medium with infinite possibilities. One can only hazard a guess as to where puppet theater will go in the future. The ability of the art form to uncannily reflect the human condition is well known. How the human condition will change and how the performers of puppet theater will respond remains to be seen.

Full textAbstract:
This study utilized an ethnographic methodology to examine and describe the various aspects and processes occurring in a children's group as the members created their own puppets and accompanying puppet plays. Individual and interactive behavior patterns were isolated and analyzed as a means of gaining an in depth understanding of the puppetry process. The puppetry process, in turn, was viewed in terms of information it provided regarding the individual members and the group process. The facilitative and non-facilitative aspects of the procedure were delineated. The adult leader met with a group of six boys, in grades four and five, for 12 one-hour sessions in which they made puppets and then created puppet plays around issues that they had articulated as problems. The group sessions were videotaped and transcribed. The transcriptions were coded in an effort to extensively analyze the puppetry process and the group process, and the ways in which the two processes interacted. An independent observer/rater was utilized in order to provide some validity for the researcher's reported results. The puppet-making task appeared to offer an opportunity for individuals to begin to come together in a common, but individual task. Characteristic styles and individual personality dynamics were evidenced. General response to the task was enthusiastic, with varying degrees of satisfaction expressed regarding their finished products. The play-creating and performing process met with less success than the puppet-making. While the group members appeared to be generally amenable to contributing ideas for the puppet plays, the process met with far more resistance in the cooperative task of putting their ideas into a finished product. The group discussion and interaction that occurred around these tasks provided a vehicle by which to view levels of interpersonal skills and the group's overall stage of development. The puppets the children created appeared to act as metaphors in expressing the group members' views of themselves and in enabling the symbolic representation of some of their central concerns. The plays they created paralleled the process that actually took place in the group. The subject matter and content of the puppets and plays provided information and evidence as to how each member approached and solved problems. The discrepancies in the ways in which the researcher and the independent observer/rater viewed the positive and negative social/emotional interactions of the group members, coupled with the small number of subjects included in this study preclude generalizing to other groups of children at this time. Further studies, with additional groups of children, utilizing parametric statistics are called for before any such generalizations can be made.

Thesis (MDram (Drama))--University of Stellenbosch, 2009.AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie navorsing word gepoog om die betekenisdraende elemente van poppeteater, naamlik beweging, klank en ontwerp van naderby te ondersoek om vas te stel in watter mate al drie elemente onmisbaar is al dan nie en hoe hierdie elemente op mekaar inspeel. Die semiotiek van beide teater en poppeteater word as agtergrond en teoretiese basis vir die ondersoek bespreek. Binne hierdie elemente word verskillende kernaspekte ondersoek waaronder distorsie, oordrywing en die dubbele aard van die toneelpop as lewelose objek met ‘n verbeelde lewe. In hierdie deel van die studie word daar ook na verskillende soorte tekens gekyk, naamlik die indeks, die simbool en die ikoon. Daar word bevind dat hierdie tekens saam ‘n dubbele verskuiwing in doel kan ondergaan naamlik van teken na verwysde, en van verwysde na nuwe tekens. Hierdie verskuiwings vind in die teater, sowel as poppeteater plaas. Ontwerp, beweging en klank word afsonderlik bespreek om die aard, rol en moontlike dominansie van elkeen te bepaal. Poppeteater maak staat op die gehoor se verbeelding en gewilligheid om die toneelpop ‘n verbeelde vorm van lewe te gee. Díe siening van die toneelpop, as beide lewelose voorwerp en ‘n verbeelde vorm van lewe, staan bekend as dubbele visie. Dubbele visie kan egter nie alleen binne die poppeteater funksioneer nie, en die verskillende elemente moet saam met die gehoor se dubbele visie ingespan word om die boodskap van die poppespel oor te dra. Beweging verlewendig die toneelpop deurdat dit die illusie van lewe en die sogenaamde dubbele visie ondersteun. Verskillende toneelpoppe word verskillend beheer en geartikuleer, elk met sy eie betekenisse wat hy deur middel van beweging oordra. Daar is bevind dat klank die enigste element is waarmee weggedoen kan word in ‘n toneelpopproduksie. Terselfdertyd kan dit ook nie afsonderlik van beweging en ontwerp funksioneer nie. Wanneer klank wel gebruik word, funksioneer die hoofveranderlike kenmerke van klank soos toonhoogte, volume, tempo, infleksie, uitspraak en ritme in die oordraging van die boodskap. Die navorsing toon dat toneelpoppe nie gebonde aan realiteit is nie, en as gevolg hiervan kan die ontwerper die toneelpop maak sonder dat dit realisties hoef te wees. Ontwerp as ‘n element bepaal ook die kwaliteit en kwantiteit van toneelpoppe, sowel as die aanwending van ander ontwerp-elemente soos kleur, tekstuur, materiaal en die grootte van die toneelpop. Poppeteater is nooit ’n blote nabootsing van ’n mens of dier nie. Poppeteater kan daarom in nabootsende en konseptuele poppeteater verdeel word. Verwringing kom in beide nabootsende en konseptuele poppeteatervorme voor, hoewel tot ‘n mindere mate in nabootsende poppeteater. In konseptuele poppeteater word daar op die gehoor gesteun om die tekens wat dit ontvang korrek te interpreteer. Die betekenisdraende elemente werk saam om die boodskap suksesvol oor te dra. Klank en beweging werk saam om karakterisering te skep; so ook klank en ontwerp. Elemente kan wel afwisselend gebruik word. Die samewerking tussen beweging en ontwerp lei tot uitvoerbare beweging. Alhoewel daar met klank as ‘n element weggedoen kan word, is dit dikwels nie ideaal nie.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to closely examine the meaning-bearing elements of puppet theatre, namely movement, sound and design to determine to what extent all three is indispensable to the puppet theatre or not, and how elements work together. The semiotics of both theatre and puppet theatre is discussed as a background and a theoretical basis for the study. Within these elements different key elements are examined, such as distortion, over-exaggeration and the double nature of the puppet as a lifeless object with an imagined life. In this part of the study different types of signs, namely the index, symbol and icon are looked at. It is found that these signs can undergo a double shift in purpose, namely from signs to referred and from referred back to signs. These shifts occur in both theatre and puppet theatre. Design, movement and sound are separately discussed to determine the nature, role and possible domination of each. Puppet theatre relies on the audience’s imagination and willingness to give the puppet an imagined form of life. Seeing the puppet as both a lifeless object and an imagined form of life is known as double vision. Double vision cannot function alone within the puppet theatre and the different elements have to work with the audience’s double vision to convey the message of the performance. Movement enlivens the puppet by supporting its illusion of life and so-called double vision. Different puppets are differently manipulated and articulated, each with its own meaning, conveyed by the movement. It is found that sound is the only element that can be disregarded in a puppetry production. At the same time it cannot function separately from design and movement. When sound is used, the main variables of sound like pitch, volume, speed, inflection, pronunciation and rhythm functions in conveying the message of the production. The research shows that puppets are not bound to reality and thus the designer can make the puppet without it having to be realistic. Design as an element also determines the quality and quantity of the puppets, as well as other design elements such as colour, texture, material and the size of the puppet. Puppetry is never a mere imitation of a human or an animal. Puppetry can therefore be divided into imitative and conceptual puppetry. Distortion is seen in both imitative and conceptual puppetry, although less so in imitative puppetry. In conceptual puppetry the audience is relied upon to interpret the signs that it receives correctly. The meaning-bearing elements work together to convey the message successfully. Sound and movement work together to create characterisation, as does sound and design. Elements can also be used alternatively. The co-operation between movement and design leads to practicable movement. Although sound as an element can be done away with, it is often not ideal.

Full textAbstract:
Criado na cidade de Nova Iorque no início dos anos sessenta, o Bread & Puppet Theater estabeleceu-se em meio à vanguarda artística norte-americana do século XX, tornando-se célebre nas apresentações e paradas de rua em protesto contra a guerra do Vietnã. Quatro décadas de teatro mais tarde, em plena guerra no Iraque, o grupo dirigido por Peter Schumann, agora radicado em Vermont, prossegue com seu teatro de papel-maché, em protesto contra os impérios vis e injustos do mundo globalizado. Esta pesquisa compara o espetáculo Portões do Inferno, último \"Circo de Ressurreição Doméstica\" (1998), espetáculo anual apresentado a dezenas de milhares de pessoas, a O Mundo de Pernas para o Ar, uma nova versão do Circo - \"Circo de Insurreição do Primeiro Mundo\" (2004), analisando relações entre forma e história. Observaremos que, em nossa atual civilização, fundada na lógica da mercadoria, na comercialização da arte, na espetacularização da vida (no sentido debordiano), e no embrutecido e fragmentário deslumbramento pós-moderno frente aos mesmos paradigmas exaltados como inovações (ou no esmaecimento do afeto, na expressão de Jameson), o teatro histórico, épico e dialético do Bread and Puppet segue resistindo efetivamente, na contramão da sociedade de consumo, na insurreição contra o mundo globalizado, a insurreição \"da mente contra a supremacia do dinheiro e a insurreição de toda a alma do teatro de bonecos contra a estupidez do maravilhamento pós-moderno\".Originated in the city of New York in the 1960s, the Bread & Puppet Theater established itself amidst the North American artistic vanguard of the 20th century. It was especially known for its demonstrations and protests against the Vietnam war. Four decades later, during the Iraq war, the group leaded by Peter Schumann, now established in Vermont, continues with their papier-maché theater, demonstrating and protesting against the evil and unfair empires of the globalized world. This study compares Gates of Hell (1998) - the final \"Domestic Resurrection Circus\"- an annual show presented to thousands of people, to Upside Down World - a new version of the circus called \"First World Insurrection Circus\" (2004) - analyzing the relationships between form and history. The analysis reveals that in our current civilization, which is largely based on the logic of commodities, in the commercialization of art, in the \"spectacularization\" of life (in debordian sense) and in the brutalized and fragmented post-modern wonderfulness, which presents and glorifies the same paradigms as innovations (or in its waning of affect, in Fredric Jameson\'s sense), Bread and Puppet\'s historical, epic and dialectic theater effectively resists, going the opposite direction of consumer society, in the insurrection against globalized world, the insurrection \"of the mind against the supremacy of money and the insurrection of the whole soul of puppetry against the stupidity of post-modern wonderfulness\".

Full textAbstract:
Bahram Beyzaie, né en 1938 en Iran, est considéré comme un très grand cinéaste et auteur dramatique de sa génération. Si certains de ses films sont bien connus, son théâtre est moins célèbre à l’étranger parce qu’il a été peu traduit et peu joué. Pour lui le théâtre est le lieu par excellence où renouer avec les formes traditionnelles de spectacle non pas pour les reconstituer mais pour parler au public d’aujourd’hui et lutter contre l’amnésie. Il nourrit donc ses pièces de théâtre, ses films, ses contes et ses narrations de l’héritage culturel oublié de son pays. Cette thèse propose d’examiner l’influence, dans son oeuvre dramatique, des spectacles traditionnels d’Iran tels que le Ta’zieh, le Naghâli ou l’Art du conteur, les marionnettes, la farce du Siyâh Bâzi, ainsi que la trace des mythes et de l’histoire de l’Iran. Dans tout ce qu’il écrit, une importance extrême est accordée à la langue perse utilisée avec virtuosité. De nombreux extraits d’ouvrages de recherche et de pièces sont proposés ici en traduction française. Une importante iconographie accompagne cette étude et rend compte des spectacles que Bahram Beyzaie a mis en scène. Il continue son travail artistique en Californie car il est actuellement un auteur en exilBorn in 1938 in Iran, Bahram Beyzaie is considered as a great filmmaker and playwright of his generation. While some of his films are well known, his theater is less famous abroad because it has been little translated or performed. For him theater is the place where to keep in touch with tradition, not to just preserve it, but to reach today’s public and fight against amnesia. He thus feeds his plays, his films, his tales and his narrations of the forgotten dramatic legacy of his country. This thesis proposes to examine the influence, in his dramatic work, of traditional Iranian performances such as Ta'zieh, Naghali or the Art of Storytelling, Puppet Theater and Siyâh Bâzi or Farce, as well as the traces of the myths and history of Iran. In everything he writes, a prominent place is dedicated to the Persian language used with utmost virtuosity. Many excerpts of texts on the theater and plays are here translated for the first time into French. A very rich iconography, mainly of his own staging of his plays, illustrates the study. Beyzaie continues his artistic work in California where he is presently an author in exile

Thesis (MDram (Drama))--Stellenbosch University, 2009.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Kenyan culture is deeply rooted in tradition. Many problems arise from the traditional role and conceptions of the Kenyan woman. These include female genital mutilation, polygamy and lack of scholastic education. A definite correlation can be found between the problem of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections and certain social traditions as well as the unscripted prohibition of open conversations about sex and death. Kenya does not have an indigenous tradition of puppetry, and Community Health and Awareness Puppeteers (CHAPS) have committed themselves to developing interactive puppetry to address these tradition- orientated social problems. Puppetry makes use of three sign systems, namely sound, design and movement. This sign systems, together with the imagination of the audience, brings life to a lifeless object and serves as a meaningful vehicle of communication. CHAPS use the inherent qualities of the puppet. The puppet’s symbolic and double nature demeanor gives this art form exceptional freedom of speech, which makes it possible discuss sensitive issues. The visual nature of puppetry and general principals such as exaggeration and simplification make it possible to convey a message to people irrespective of their literacy level. The absence of television in rural and impoverished areas in Kenya ensures that people from any age group relate to puppetry as a visual art form.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Kenia is ‘n baie tradisievaste land. Uit veral die tradisionele posisie van die vrou spruit ‘n aantal sosiale probleme, onder andere vroulike geslagsskending, poligamie en gebrekkige skolastiese opvoeding. Die problematiek rondom MIV/VIGS en oordraaglke geslagssiektes hou verband met sekere tradisionele sosiale gebruike en die ongeskrewe verbod om oor seks en dood te praat. Kenia het nie ‘n inheemse poppeteatertradisie nie en Community Health and Awareness Puppeteers (CHAPS) beywer hulle daarvoor om poppeteater in Kenia te bevorder en bogenoemde tradisie-verwante sosiale probleme deur middel van interaktiewe poppeteater aan te spreek. Poppeteater maak van drie tekensisteme gebruik, naamlik klank, ontwerp en beweging. Hierdie tekens, tesame met die gehoor se verbeelding, gee ‘n verbeelde lewe aan die toneelpop as ‘n lewelose voorwerp en dien as betekenisdraende kommunikasiemiddele. CHAPS benut die inherente eienskappe van die toneelpop. Die toneelpop se simboliese en dubbele aard gee aan die kunsvorm ‘n uitsonderlike vryheid van spraak wat dit moontlik maak om oor sensitiewe kwessies te praat. Die visuele aard van die poppeteater en spelbeginsels soos oordrywing en vereenvoudiging maak die kunsvorm toeganklik vir mense van enige geletterdheidsvlak. In die afwesigheid van televisie in die landelike en armoedige stedelike gebiede in Kenia, vind poppeteater as nuwigheid en visueelgerigte kunsvorm aanklank by enige ouderdomsgroep.

Full textAbstract:
Rachel Corrie was a young American woman who died at the age of twenty-three in Gaza in 2003. She was killed when an Israeli Occupation Force bulldozer ran over her while she was defending a Palestinian house from demolition. Her martyr's death, combined with the force of her descriptions of her experiences as an activist in Palestine, not only provoked response from other activists; it became material for a number of theatrical projects, among them productions by the Royal Court Theatre in London, Bread and Puppet Theatre in the US, and in a production I recently wrote and directed here in New Zealand. This thesis considers the example of Rachel Corrie's activism in Palestine and the theatrical performances it engendered in order to examine the role of theatre in and as an activist project. The theatre is an important component of the ongoing movement for social change. It assembles temporary communities and it portrays issues in ways that are both accessible and open to debate. But theatricality is just as often a key component of activist actions outside the theatre building: in street performances and demonstrations, and also in the way some activists can be seen to pursue their political objectives on a daily basis. Finally, the theatre is a material act of production which can challenge the dominant model of production and thus has the potential to be become an activist project as itself. As a result of my analyses of this material, I hope to provide a framework of understanding both for myself and others, of the likely role of theatre in and as an activist project, and this understanding will be of assistance in the cultural task of shifting beliefs in the movement for social change. The key theorists used in this thesis are Walter Benjamin and Raymond Williams.

O grupo Sobrevento é um dos grandes expoentes do Teatro de Animação brasileiro e, em 2016, completou 30 anos de história conduzido por uma ideologia particular que preconiza a busca pelo constante desafio artístico. Por mais de duas décadas, o coletivo dedicou-se ao estudo de diferentes técnicas de manipulação de bonecos, com o intuito de reinventar seu teatro a cada espetáculo, e se tornou referência na arte da animação. Contudo, após 25 anos, passou a se dedicar ao Teatro de Objetos, vertente que utiliza o objeto puro, abandonando o boneco e o intuito de conferir-lhe vida. O presente trabalho propõe uma investigação da trajetória do grupo Sobrevento com o objetivo de evidenciar as motivações estéticas e ideológicas que causaram a transição do Teatro de Bonecos ao Teatro de Objetos. Para tanto, analisa a primeira década da companhia, abordando os principais aspectos que influenciaram sua formação e suas escolhas estéticas. Examina as técnicas utilizadas no decorrer da carreira do grupo, destacando o estudo da Manipulação Direta, inspirada no Bunraku, bem como as experiências realizadas com o Boneco de Luva Chinês e com o Mamulengo. A discussão sobre o abandono da animação na história da companhia ocorre por meio do estudo dos espetáculos São Manuel Bueno, Mártir (2013), Sala de Estar (2015) e Só (2016). À luz da trajetória do objeto no teatro moderno e contemporâneo, pretendemos revelar fatores expressivos da cena do Sobrevento decorrentes de uma maneira própria de utilizar o objeto em seus espetáculos, enquanto reflexo da busca pela originalidade poética, característica do grupo desde sua criação.
Sobrevento theater group is one of the great exponents of the Brazilian Puppet Theater. In 2016, it has completed 30 years of history driven by a particular ideology that advocates the search for constant artistic challenge. For more than two decades, this group has dedicated itself to the study of different puppet manipulation techniques. Its intention has always been the reinvention of its own theater in each play, and it has become an important reference in the art of puppetry. However, after 25 years, the group began to explore the Theater of Objects, which uses the pure object, abandoning the puppet and the purpose of giving life to it. The present work proposes an investigation about the trajectory of Sobrevento group in order to highlight the aesthetic and ideological motivations that caused the transition from Puppet Theater to Theater of Objects. Therefore, it analyzes the first decade of the company, addressing the main aspects that influenced its formation and its aesthetic choices. All techniques handled during the group's career are considered, but there is further explanation about the study of Direct Manipulation, inspired by Bunraku, as well as the experiments with Chinese Glove-Puppet and Mamulengo. The discussion about the abandonment of puppetry in the company's history happens through the study of three plays, Saint Manuel Bueno, Martyr (2013), Living Room (2015) and Alone (2016). In the light of object trajectory in modern and contemporary theater, we intend to reveal scenic expressive factors of Sobrevento, as they result from a particular way of using the object in its plays. Therefore, it demonstrates the search for poetic originality that has characterized the group since its creation.

Previous issue date: 2014-04-24The theater of puppets is one of the many expressions of popular culture which is marked by ongoing constructions and transformations in its symbolic representations as well as its characters and performances. In the city of Natal/RN, there is a manipulator called Heraldo Lins, an artist who operates such puppets, and has been performing his puppet since 1992. Lins has his own look at how he produces his performances and seeks to adjust his puppets to social and rentable contexts. Lins?s performances are tailor-made in accordance with the request of his customers, as he makes up the passages and lines of his puppets according to his audience. This research aimed to study how the Heraldo Lins Mamulengos Show is built, especially its changes. We note that Lins chooses to dismantle the symbolic values of the tradition in the regular puppet theater once he adapts to modern patterns, placing himself between the traditional puppet theater and the cultural industry. The work in camp was made through a methodological focused in a participative observation and an audiovisual registry
O teatro de mamulengos ? uma das express?es da cultura popular que t?m sua trajet?ria marcada por constru??es e transforma??es tanto em suas representa??es simb?licas como em seus personagens e performances. Na cidade do Natal, RN, existe um mamulengueiro chamado Heraldo Lins que mant?m o seu teatro de mamulengos em atividade h? vinte e um anos, ele possui o seu pr?prio olhar sobre o que produz e como produz, procura ajustar o seu teatro de mamulengos ao contexto social e ao mercado, tematiza as apresenta??es a pedido do contratante, sistematiza a constru??o das passagens e falas dos bonecos. Esta pesquisa procurou estudar o processo de contru??o do "Show de Mamulengos" de Heraldo Lins, sobretudo como ocorrem as transforma??es. Constatamos que ele opta pela dissolvi??o de valores simb?licos presentes no teatro de mamulengos tradicional em prol de uma adapta??o ? modernidade, se colocando entre o treatro tradicional de mamulengos e a ind?strial cultural. O trabalho de campo foi realizado atrav?s de um recorte metodol?gicos que privilegiou a observa??o participante, a entrevista e o registro sonoro-visual

Abstract:
The purpose of this report is to reflect on the creative process of a theater show with
puppets, a multidisciplinary one whose motto was: theater Life Distortion. Transiting
between the traditional and the contemporary, in a preliminary game of possibilities, it
operates at the crossing of languages. It reflects on a creative process that is based on
sharing, in the following areas: work of actress, puppeteer, text, music, image, movement,
video and the close relationship with the public. The options taken and the horizons
covered are analyzed and considered, taking into account the process from a “zero” point,
in which the text and the other areas emerged from the listening and circular interaction
of the elements. The first chapter contextualizes and specifically relates the starting points
for the project, while the second reports and reflects on them.

Esta pesquisa é um estudo sobre o traje de cena na relação boneco/objeto e ator/manipulador, a partir das dimensões materiais, visuais e simbólicas que o constituem. O estudo abarca dois estudos de caso: a companhia mineira de teatro de bonecos Giramundo e a companhia francesa de teatro de rua Royal de Luxe. A análise do traje de cena em cada companhia foi organizada a partir de temas pré-estabelecidos, e exemplos de seus espetáculos foram evocados na medida em que ilustravam estes temas. Esta escolha não seguiu ordem cronológica e permitiu que os elementos de materialidade e visualidade do traje de cena nas duas companhias fossem analisados. Para suporte teórico, buscou-se a teoria teatral que analisa as distintas propostas de utilização do boneco em cena, contemplando a produção contemporânea. Relacionou-se também o tema da pesquisa com estudos de moda e artes visuais, que permitem analisar o traje e suas propriedades inerentes deslocadas para a cena. A hipótese é que o traje de cena no teatro de animação2 adquire significados específicos, quando se expande sua investigação e entendimento para além do traje do boneco, alcançando a relação boneco/objeto e ator/manipulador. A pesquisa gerou indicativos teóricos que poderão ser utilizados em trabalhos futuros, como ponto de partida na análise de outros casos onde o traje de cena tenha como premissa as especificidades estabelecidas a partir da relação entre a figura humana/ator-manipulador e o objeto articulado inanimado/boneco. Não se espera, naturalmente, que os resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa sejam aplicáveis a todos os casos de apropriação do objeto/boneco como eixo central da cena em diferentes espetáculos, em que sua composição e relação com o ator-manipulador consiste em inúmeras possibilidades.This research is a study about the scene costume of in relation puppet / object and actor / manipulator, from the material, visual and symbolic dimensions that constitute it. The study covers two case studies: the Brazilian puppet theater company Giramundo and the French street theater company Royal de Luxe. The analysis of the scene costume in each company was organized from pre-established themes, and examples of their theater shows were evoked as they illustrated these themes. This choice did not follow chronological order and allowed the elements of materiality and visuality of the scene costume in the two companies to be analyzed. For theoretical support, we sought the theatrical theory that analyzes the different proposals of use of the puppet in scene, contemplating the contemporary production. The subject of the research was also related with studies of fashion and visual arts that allow to analyze the costume and its inherent properties displaced for the scene. The hypothesis is that the scene costume in the theater of animation3 acquires specific meanings when it expands its investigation and understanding beyond the costume of the puppet, reaching the relation puppet / object and actor / manipulator. The research generated theoretical indicatives that could be used in future work, as a starting point in the analysis of other cases where the costume of the scene is premised on the specificities established from relationship between the human figure/actor-manipulator and the inanimate articulated object /puppet. It is not expected, of course, that the results from this research could be useful to all possible cases of appropriation of the object / puppet as the central axis of the scene in different spectacles as we are aware its composition and its relation with the actor-manipulator involves uncountable possibilities.

A presente dissertação questiona a tradição e a modernidade no contexto do ensino artístico na área do teatro de marionetas na cidade de Évora, num período de tempo que se inicia com o processo de transmissão da tradição dos Bonecos de Santo Aleixo (BSA) a partir dos anos 80 e que chega até aos nossos dias. Pretendemos avaliar a força transformadora deste processo como marco inicial de uma série de acções académicas e artísticas que tiveram como palco a cidade de Évora, cujos agentes são identificados nos momentos do surgimento da Bienal Internacional de Marionetas de Évora, organizada pelo Centro Dramático de Évora (CENDREV); Seminário Internacional de Marionetas de Évora (SIME), organizada pelo Centro de História da Arte e Investigação Artística da Universidade de Évora (CHAIA/UÉ) e o Curso de Mestrado em Teatro Ramo Arte do Actor-Marionetista (CMT/AAM), do Departamento de Artes Cénicas (DAC) da Universidade de Évora (UÉ). Procuraremos demonstrar que no debate sobre a transmissão da tradição do teatro de marionetas dos BSA, coadunam questões sociológicas, políticas, culturais e artísticas que se prolongam e desenvolvem inseridas na modernidade, culminando na discussão sobre o ensino artístico regular na área do teatro de marionetas. Neste contexto, indagaremos ainda sobre as características pedagógico-artísticas deste primeiríssimo curso de teatro de marionetas, no ensino superior público, através de observações e da análise das apresentações públicas da Aula Aberta e do espectáculo A Cantora, como resultado do Projecto I, que faz parte do Plano de Estudos deste curso; ABSTRACT: The present dissertation questions the tradition and the modernity in the context of the artistic teaching in the area of the puppet theater in the city of Evora, within a period of time that begins with the process of transmission of the tradition of the Santo Aleixo’s Puppets in the 1980s to our days. We intend to value the transforming strength of this process as the initial landmark of a series of academic and artistic actions that took place in the city of Evora, whose agents are identified with the creation of the Internacional Puppet Bienal of Évora (BIME) organized by the Centro Dramático de Évora (CENDREV); International Puppet Seminar of Evora (SIME), organized by the Centro de História da Arte e Investigação Artística da Universidade de Évora (CHAIA/UÉ) and the Course of Master's degree in Theater Branch Art of the Actor-Puppeteer, of the Departamento de Artes Cénicas da Universidade de Évora. We will try to demonstrate that, in the discussion on the transmission of the tradition of the puppet theater of the BSA, combine sociological, political, cultural and artistic questions that are extended and develop inserted in the modernity, culminating in the discussion on the artistic teaching in the area of the puppet theater. In this context, we will furthermore inquire on the artistic-pedagogic characteristics of this very first course of Puppet Theater, in the public higher education, through observation and analysis of the public presentations of Open Classroom (Aula Aberta) and of the show The Singer (A Cantora), as a result of Project I, which is part of the Plan of Studies of this course.

Full textAbstract:
Tématem této práce je studium iluze v loutkovém divadle. V první části se pokusím objasnit pojem iluze v umění všeobecně. Hlavním předpokladem je, že umění a iluze jsou dva neoddělitelné pojmy. Iliuze není výsldkem neby výplodem umění, nýbrž nevyhnutelným prostředkem k analýze věcí. Ona neskutečným způsobem pomáhá k prožitku skutečného a neskutečného světa. V tomto prožitku kromě umělce působí také pozorovatel, na jehož schopnosti vnímat umělcovy iluze závisí také samotný účinek této iluze.V divadelním umění se iluze děje v okamžiku a prostoru před očima diváka. Zázrak iluze se uskutečňuje před námi a zapomínáme, že je tady.V loutkovém umění má loutka, jako uměle stvořená scénická postava, již v samé své podstatě iluzorní charakter. Právě potřebě člověka tvořit a jeho pokusům měnit skutečnost dluží loutka svůj původ. Již v prehistorii byla loutka prostředkem pro navazování kontaktů s Bohem. V romantismu umělci probudí tento metaforický vztah a pozvednou loutkové divadlo jako umělecky hodnotnou formu. Období modernismu přináší nové úvahy o teorii loutek. Modernisté začínají v loutce poznávat nové, symbolické možnosti. Tyto úvahy o loutkách přispěly k vývoji loutkového divadla, které vyžaduje svůj vlastní jazyk iluze. Loutka již nenapodobuje skutečnost, nýbrž vytváří novou skutečnost. Další vývoj loutkového divadla se vydává směrem k experimentování s různými loutkářskými možnostmi vyjadřování. Odhazuje se paraván, loutka a animátor se objevují společně na scéně. Iluze je zpochybněna kvůli prezentaci reálnosti tvorby. Při hledání poetického jazyka vyjadřování se v loutkovém divadle začínají animovat části těla, materiály, předměty? Skutečné předměty dostávají neskutečný význam a iluze metamorfózy se děje před našima očimaNa konci práce se ohlédnu i na loutkové divadlo v Chorvatsku. V tomto krátkém ohlédnutí se pokusím nastínit přehled vývoje loutkářství a jeho iluze a objasnit vlivy, které přispěly k tomuto vývoji.

Full textAbstract:
Le cabaret de l’Écluse est une petite salle de spectacles, ouverte entre 1951 et 1974 au 15, quai des Grands Augustins à Paris, et dont la particularité est de programmer chaque soir des numéros variés — chant, sketch comique, poésie récitée, marionnettes, mime et projection de dessins. Au fil des vingt ans d’existence de ce cabaret, s’y produisent des artistes aussi divers que Barbara, Raymond Devos, Marcel Marceau, Yves Joly, Philippe Noiret et Jean-Pierre Darras ou Cora Vaucaire. À rebours de l'éclectisme déroutant du spectacle qu'il accueille, c'est en tant que lieu que le cabaret de l'Écluse semble le mieux « donner prises », construisant son identité à partir d'une localisation parisienne qui l'insère dans un paysage urbain, social et culturel soutenu par une tradition historique complexe. Il fait ainsi partie des cabarets dits « rive gauche », qui fleurissent près de la Seine après la Seconde Guerre mondiale et affichent spatialement leur refus du divertissement commercial qu’offrent par ailleurs les « boîtes » plus luxueuses de la rive droite. Cette lecture déterminée de l’espace qui fait du cabaret un mot-valeur doit être comprise dans une histoire plus longue. Se construit en effet depuis le XIXe siècle, loin des premières représentations du lieu, d’abord attaché à une inquiétude sociale, l’image du cabaret comme un espace refuge où la poésie trouverait à s’épanouir contre l’affirmation croissante d’une culture industrielle et commerciale.En dépit d’un tel patrimoine axiologique, le cabaret de l’Écluse présente une réalité plus métissée. S’il rend hommage à des modèles littéraires prestigieux, comme le Chat Noir ou le Lapin Agile, dont il contribue à prolonger le mythe, il intègre pourtant, pour chacun de ses numéros, les apports du café-concert, du music-hall et du cinéma — autant de manifestations associées à une culture du divertissement souvent bannie du champ littéraire. Cette hétérogénéité est soulignée par la formule même du spectacle, qui érige la variété en principe de composition. À la diversité des modes d’expression convoqués répond ainsi le caractère composite de leurs héritages. L’Écluse apparaît donc comme un objet pluriel qui exige, pour être pensé, de fonder de nouvelles catégories d’analyse. C’est précisément au prisme de la variété, envisagée comme un véritable outil méthodologique aux prolongements herméneutiques et éthiques féconds, que nous l’étudierons.Irréductible aux déterminations axiologiques, le cabaret de l'Écluse fait vaciller la stabilité de son ancrage géographique, et nous oblige à repenser les territoires et prérogatives du littéraire, qu'il n'effleure, par le biais poétique, que pour mieux le sidérer. Quelle place accorder à ce lieu rebelle qui prend de cours nos critères d'analyse traditionnels et rend illisible le paysage artistique et culturel qu'explorent les études littéraires ? À force d'écarts et de détours, le lieu qui s'imposait à nous par sa visibilité évidente ne risque-t-il pas de perdre toute consistance ? L’Écluse parviendrait à demeurer — telle est notre hypothèse — en transformant le lieu géographique et social du cabaret pris dans les mailles d'un réseau et d'un champ, dans les filets de déterminations historiques, en un espace poétique délié. Lieu traversé, habité de propositions spectaculaires variées, il fonderait à partir de leur mise en présence cet espace poétique, que nous nous proposerons de définir non comme une certaine mise en forme du texte mais comme un réseau d’échos, tissés d’une prestation à l’autre. Cette « manœuvre foudroyante de rapports » déplace la production du sens du plain-chant à ses résonancesL’Écluse was a small performance hall which presented mixed shows every evening between 1951 and 1974 : songs, shorts comedy sketches, recitations of poems, puppet shows, mimes and projected drawings. Many performers worked at L’Écluse. Some became famous, suche as Barbara, Raymond Devos, Marc Marceau, Yves Joly, Philippe Noiret and Cora Vaucaire. Despite the confusing eclectism of the cabaret shows, the place itself seems to offer a stable way to consider the subject. Indeed, L’Écluse built itself through its localisation in Paris, situated in an urban, social and cultural landscape shaped by a long and historical tradition. It was part of these « cabarets rive-gauche » that bloomed in Paris after the Second World War, pretending to refuse every form of commercial entertainment usually proposed to tourists by luxurious night-clubs on the right bank of the Seine river. This emblematic partition of the French capital between a right and a left bank resulted from a long history. Since the end of the XIXth century, cabarets were indeed considered as places of arts, where poetry could blossom far from a besides growing industrial and commercial culture. However, l’Écluse’s identity was not as clear as it seemed. The cabaret payed tributes to its prestigious literary precursors such as Le Chat Noir and Le Lapin Agile, but also to café-concerts, music-halls and popular movies, that are frequently left out of the literary field. This complete heterogeneity appeared in its shows themselves, shaped by various artistic expressions. L’Écluse was thus ruled by variety. It was therefore a complex object that requires specific methods to be considered. It is precisely through the prism of variety, regarded as a fruitful methodological analysis tool, that we intent to study it. With its mixed shows, L’Écluse cannot be sorted into a « black-or-white » category. It encourages us to re-think what belongs to literature or not. Where can such an unclassifiable place, that catches us unawares and strikes down our usual analysis categories, stand in literary studies ? Accordingly, we postulate that L’Écluse converted its place, defined by historical, geographical and social determinations, into a creative poetic space, shaped by the coexistence of various artistic expressions and the echoes that appeared between each of them and not by the pretended quality of its acts. The meaning of the shows was thus not provided by what was clearly said : it came from what remained unformulated

This dissertation investigated the trajectory of the theater company “Nu escuro”, in Goiânia, since its creation, initialized in the old technical school of Goiás – current IFG -, until its recent show called Gato Negro. Since its first show, Três por três, the company uses the puppet theater, and, over the course of time, it has been developing this language, specifically in the shows Envelopes (2005) and Plural (2012), focused in this research. It aims, therefore, to analyze the work of the animator-actor in the theater company “Nu escuro” in the shows Envelopes, in which the animator-actor is visible, but neutral in the scene, and Plural, in which it is visible and active in the scene. The objective was to investigate, through interviews and living with the group, the work of the animator-actor in its presence and neutrality and in its relation with the puppets and the masks in the puppet theater. Concerning both shows – Envelopes and Plural –, it was possible to observe how the creation of the animator-actor‟s bodywork of the theater company “Nu escuro” happened, being based, initially, on his body and on the animated artifacts – puppets and masks. Finally, it‟s considered the actor‟s body, in which one body is the animator-actor and the other is the character-actor, differentiating one from the other by the technique, that is, by the question of guiding the focus.
Esta dissertação averiguou o percurso da Companhia “Nu escuro”, em Goiânia, desde sua formação, iniciada na antiga escola técnica de Goiás – atual IFG –, até seu recente espetáculo denominado Gato Negro. Desde seu primeiro espetáculo, Três por três, a Companhia usa o teatro de animação, e, no decorrer do tempo, tem aprimorando essa linguagem, especificamente nos espetáculos Envelopes (2005) e Plural (2012), focos desta pesquisa. Busca-se, portanto, analisar o trabalho do ator-animador da Companhia “Nu escuro” nos espetáculos Envelopes, em que o ator-animador está visível, porém neutro na cena, e Plural, em que está visível e atuante em cena. O objetivo foi averiguar, por meio de entrevistas e convivência com o grupo, o trabalho do ator-animador em sua presença e neutralidade e em sua relação com os bonecos e as máscaras no teatro de animação. A respeito dos dois espetáculos – Envelopes e Plural –, foi possível perceber como aconteceu a formação do trabalho corporal do ator-animador da Companhia de teatro “Nu escuro”, tendo sido baseada, a princípio, em seu corpo e nos artefatos animados – bonecos e máscaras. Por conseguinte, considera-se a questão do corpo do ator, em que o corpo um é ator-animador e o outro é ator-personagem, diferenciando-se pela técnica, ou seja, pela questão de direcionamento de foco.

This study is based on the understanding that the puppet theater has undergone intense changes during the twentieth century. In this context, the technique is occupying an important space in the puppeteer practice. It results in a number of reflections and knowledge relevant to the work of the interpreter. The focus of this research is study principles specifics to interpretation by means of object. It consisted to organize these principles by reference to the ideas of authors specialist in this art. This route has been illustrated by spectacles. After readings and reflections, it was organized in three points: the first deals with relevant issues to the relationship between the puppeteer and the object, the second point raises thoughts about the neutrality and the third deals with matters relating to the movement in the animation of the object
Este estudo se apóia na compreensão de que o teatro de animação sofreu intensas transformações no século XX. Nesse contexto, a técnica vem ocupando um importante espaço na prática do ator-animador, consolidando um conjunto de reflexões e saberes pertinentes ao trabalho desse intérprete. A pesquisa tem como foco o estudo dos princípios específicos à interpretação mediada pelo objeto, consistindo em organizá-los, tomando como referência as reflexões de autores especialistas nessa arte. Esse percurso investigativo foi enriquecido pelo diálogo com alguns espetáculos. Após as leituras e reflexões realizadas o material foi organizado em três eixos: o primeiro trata de questões pertinentes à relação entre o ator-animador e o objeto; o segundo eixo levanta reflexões sobre a neutralidade e o terceiro eixo trata de questões referentes ao movimento na animação do objeto

Full textAbstract:
Il mio progetto di ricerca dal titolo “Il teatro dei burattini nell’educazione e formazione dei bambini” consiste in una disamina approfondita dell’apporto che il burattino permetta a ciascuno - lavorando a partire dal Sé e dalla propria creatività e creando una sinergia fra lavoro cognitivo, esperienziale e sociale- di mostrare le proprie conoscenze, abilità e competenze. I burattini che spesso vengono guardati come un semplice passatempo per bambini, racchiudono invece la capacità di far emergere la physis di ogni persona. La tesi è strutturata in tre macro capitoli. Nel primo capitolo rifletto principalmente su ciò che è l’alternanza formativa. Nella lingua italiana, per il verbo “recitare”, l’accento viene posto sulla ripetizione del gesto o della parola. Questo introduce alla riflessione circa il valore dell’esperienza, terreno comune fra pedagogia e teatro dei burattini. Viene analizzata anche l’interazione tra esperienza e azione, valorizzando il valore espressivo dell’embodied knowledge e del learning by doing, così come l’armonia che deve esserci fra mente e corpo affinché si possa parlare di un’educazione e una formazione olistica del soggetto. Il secondo capitolo è dedicato all’analisi e alla contestualizzazione del burattino in educazione e in formazione. Partendo dai tre maestri indicati da Rousseau, i burattini sono oggetti che educano, “cose” che permettono di effettuare esperienza sulla realtà grazie alla relazionalità con l’altro; sono anche “cose” costruite dall’uomo e quindi manifestazioni concrete dell’azione umana che permettono a chi le costruisce e a chi le utilizza di riflettere sulla propria coscienza, autocoscienza e a manifestare la propria physis. Gli oggetti animati con intenzionalità, propri del teatro di figura, fanno parte del patrimonio culturale e hanno delle influenze sulla persona. Il teatro dei burattini è una forma d’arte capace di rappresentare un valido collaboratore in campo pedagogico, educativo e formativo perché utilizza un insieme di linguaggi e tecniche espressive: la manipolazione, la costruzione, il linguaggio verbale e non verbale, o ancora l’analisi dei sentimenti, delle diverse modalità espressive e l’imparare facendo. Il terzo capitolo racchiude la ricerca empirica che ho realizzato mediante l’utilizzo delle metodologie qualitative e, in particolar modo, al metodo narrativo in pedagogia. Vengono qui presentate e analizzate le osservazioni, l’intervista biografica e le interviste a burattinai, bambini, insegnanti ed educatori circa la propria personale interpretazione della valenza pedagogica del burattino e del suo utilizzo all’interno dei contesti educativi e formativi. La ricerca metodologica condotta ha messo in luce diverse tematiche all’interno delle quali anche il burattino può diventare protagonista, valido supporto e collaboratore affidabile nel contesto scolastico. A scuola il burattino è un facilitatore della comunicazione e chi lo utilizza può esplorare numerosi canali comunicativi: da quello verbale a quello corporeo ed emotivo. Attraverso i burattini si sperimenta un coinvolgimento totale - ognuno secondo le proprie potenzialità- poiché permettono una piena interazione fra materie teoriche ed esperienze concrete. Il burattino favorisce l’acquisizione del sapere, del saper fare e del saper essere, in una visione olistica del soggetto. La didattica laboratoriale con i burattini si rivolge all’esperienza pedagogica che coinvolge il singolo nel suo essere unico, libero, singolare e irripetibile. Il tutto è frutto di una ricerca condotta mediante la metodologia dell’osservazione, nel rispetto dell’interazione circolare fra nozioni teoriche ed esperienza maturate nel corso degli anni grazie alla mia attività di burattinaia.The PhD project “Puppet theater in the education and training of children” consists of examining the contribution that the puppet allows to everyone to show their knowledge, skills and competences. The person who experiments with puppets works starting from the self, from his own creativity and creates a synergy between cognitive, experiential and social work. The puppets, which are often seen as a simple pastime for children, instead contain the ability to bring out each person's physis. The PhD thesis is structured in three main chapters. In the first chapter I reflect on training alternation. In the Italian language, for the verb “to recite”, the emphasis is on the repetition of the gesture or word. This statement allows us to reflect on the value of experience, common ground between pedagogy and puppetry. I also analyze the interaction of experience and action. I reason on embodied knowledge and learning by doing. I reflect on the harmony between mind and body for the person’s holistic education and training. The second chapter is devoted to the analysis and contextualization of the puppet in education and training. Starting with the three masters indicated by Rousseau, the puppets are “things” that educate. Puppets are “things” that allow us to experience reality thanks to the relationship with each other; they are also “things” built by man and therefore concrete manifestations of his action. The puppets allow those who build them and those who use them to reflect on their conscience, self-awareness and to manifest their physis. Objects animated with intentionality, typical of puppetry, are part of the cultural heritage and they have influences on the person. To justify what I say, I carry out a reflection linked to the pedagogy of local culture. I also make a presentation of the traditional puppets: the puppets are tools that convey the values of the territory they represent. Puppet theater is an art form capable of representing a valid collaborator in the pedagogical, educational and training fields. Puppet theater uses a set of languages and expressive techniques: manipulation, construction, verbal and non-verbal language, sentiment analysis, analysis of the different expressive modes and learning by doing. The third chapter contains the empirical research that I carried out with qualitative methodologies and, in particular, the narrative method in pedagogy. In this chapter I present and I analyze the observations, the biographical interview, the interviews with puppeteers, the interviews with children and the interviews with teachers and educators. These interviews summarize the interviewees’ interpretations on the pedagogical value of the puppet and on the use of the puppet within educational and training contexts. The methodological research that I have conducted has brought to light several issues where the puppet can become the protagonist, valid support and reliable collaborator in the school context. At school, the puppet is a facilitator of communication and whoever uses it can explore numerous communication channels: from verbal to bodily and emotional. Through the puppets each person experiences a total involvement in his potential. Puppets allow a full interaction between theoretical subjects and concrete experiences. The puppet favors a holistic view of the person and the acquisition of knowledge, know-how and knowing how to be. The workshop teaching with puppets is aimed at the pedagogical experience that involves the individual in his being unique, free, singular and unrepeatable. Everything related to the PhD thesis is the result of a research that I conducted using the methodology of observation. The research was carried out in compliance with the circular interaction between theoretical notions and experience that I have gained over the years and thanks to my puppeteering activity.

Full textAbstract:
Le corps est l’élément qui s’impose pour aborder l'oeuvre de Valère Novarina. Certes, l’auteur traite d'autres thèmes (politique, télévision, etc.) mais le corps reste sa préoccupation centrale. L’approche du corps novarinien semble s’inscrire dans des traditions qu’on peut faire remonter à l’antiquité et qu’on peut aussi la rattacher à une certaine modernité (Jarry, Artaud, etc). Valère Novarina met en avant des notions originales. Une animalité présentée de façon positive, la pantinitude de l’acteur et la sainteté paradoxale de Louis de Funès. Le corps bizarre et étranger est très présent dans son oeuvre : un corps surhumain et très humain en même temps. Le côté mystique du corps novarinien nous renvoie à la Bible et aux Ecritures Saintes : il redessine les figures de l’histoire biblique (Adam, Job, Moïse) et la vie de Jésus depuis sa naissance jusqu’à sa résurrection d’une manière très originale. Nous sommes là devant un sujet délicat qui fait débat et qui concerne chacun de nous : la dualité entre le corps et l’âme. Les réflexions sur la finalité du corps novarinien nous ont conduits à découvrir une certaine spécificité du corps de l’acteur : importance du vide, corps-offrande et parenté entre la scène et le sacréBody appeared as a crucial element in any approach of Valère Novarina’s work. Certainly, the author is interessed by many other themes –politics, television,etc…– however body remains his central preoccupation. Novarian vision of the body,seems to belong to a traditional perception of it – coming from Antiquity– which could also be linked to a certain modernity –Jarry, Artaud, etc. Valère Novarina highlights creative/ original notions. An animality illustrated through a positive way,the « pantinitude » of the actor and the paradoxical saintliness of Louis de Funès.The strange and unfamiliar body is strongly present in his work : a super human body and at the same time a really human one. The mystical aspect of the Novarian body indicates references to Bible and Holly Scriptures : he draws again historical figures of the Bible (Adam, Job, Moses) and the life of Jesus, from his birth to his ressurrection, through a highly original style/ way. We are here in front of a delicate topic, subject to debate and which concernes each of us : the duality between body and soul. Reflexions on the finality of the Novarian body lead us to discover a certain specificity of the actor body : importance of a vacuum/emptiness, body offerring andkinship/ relationship between scene and sacred

Resumo: Esta dissertação tem como objeto de estudo o processo de criação do espetáculo "100 Shakespeare" produzido pela Pia Fraus Teatro no ano de 2006. O espetáculo reúne nove textos de William Shakespeare apresentados de forma não linear, praticamente sem o uso da palavra e com recursos da linguagem do Teatro de Animação. Utiliza técnicas de manipulação de bonecos como bunraku, luz negra, vara, direta, além da manipulação de objetos e uso de máscaras. "100 Shakespeare", como construções narrativas da companhia anteriores a esta, reconfigura as técnicas de manipulação de bonecos. Esta reconfiguração e seu modus operandi trouxe aos atores criadores, seres naturalmente exercitantes da busca expressiva, um olhar mais apurado ao nível de consciência de sua expressividade e como ela pode ser transferida ao boneco ou objeto. Para isso foi analisada, passo a passo, a elaboração de cada cena componente do trabalho e o comportamento do corpo do ator em relação à construção estética dos bonecos e suas técnicas de manipulação. Objetivamente o estudo busca mostrar formas de instrumentalização do manipulador de bonecos, aqui chamado de ator/manipulador, através da elaboração e gradação da transmissão de sua expressividade ao boneco e também da alteridade presente na criação da identidade de cada personagem
Abstract: This thesis is to study the process of creating the show "Shakespeare 100" produced by Pia Fraus Theatre in 2006. The show brings together nine texts of William Shakespeare presented in a nonlinear manner, almost without the use of words and language features of the Animation Theater. It uses techniques such as manipulation of Bunraku puppets, black light, stick, direct, and the manipulation of objects and use of masks. "100 Shakespeare," as narratives of the company prior to this, reconfigures the techniques of manipulating puppets. This reconfiguration and its modus operandi brought to the actors creators, search retreatants beings naturally expressive, a closer look at the level of awareness of their expression and how it can be transferred to the puppet or object. For it was analyzed, step by step, the preparation of each scene component of the work and behavior of the actor's body in relation to the aesthetic construction of the puppets and their manipulation techniques. Objectively, the study seeks to show ways of manipulation of the puppeteer, here called the actor / handler, through the development and transmission of gradation expressivity as well as the puppet of otherness present at the creation of the identity of each character

This research focuses on the voice in Puppet Theater a term that embraces different kinds of performances, characterized by hybridity and the dynamics of the animate/inanimate present in Puppet Theater, Mask Theater, Shadow Puppetry, Visual Theater, etc. The voice is approached, in Puppet Theater, as a creator of presence and meaning, according to Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht s theory of presence production. I investigate how the voice can generate presence in relation to specific Puppet Theater poetics. The voice, in singular, refers to its essence as an oscillation between presence and meaning. However, since the voice unfolds itself in different cultural, poetic and historical contexts, actually the voice is plural in its several manifestations. By setting out the following problem, when voice is in Puppet Theater? , I seek to identify poetics that are also defined by its voice presence. Once identified such poetics, I seek to distinguish the voice s generating and constituting elements that establish it as presence and meaning, in relation to its poetics. During the investigation, I contemplate authors and artists that reflect about the use of voice in Puppet Theater and research their procedures, as well as those who treat it as a background to or even outlaw it from the scene. I survey the bibliography on the subject, bring examples from national and international performances seen in the last three years in Brazil, and use material drawn from interviews, seminars and courses realized in this period. Along this research, some recurring vocal procedures in Puppet Theater are individuated, and in some cases, these revealed themselves as specific to an art form characterized by the separation between the puppet-object and its sound source. During the investigation I came to realize that, although the Brazilian Puppet Theater quite often uses speech in its performances, there is significant absence of voice as I have defined above: voice as an oscillation between presence and meaning. Based on Adriana Cavarero s philosophical studies, which describe the de- vocalization process of a civilization centered in the logos (understood as reason), I realized that this process is mirrored by the Puppet Theater scene. The twentieth century emerges as a century in which performances are based on the sense of vision, promoted by a civilization centered on the image. The sense of vision has taken over all the other senses, promoting the de-vocalization of the logos, leading to a de-vocalization of the scene. The aim with this research is to - identify the vocal havens and to investigate the procedures that establish this oscillation between presence and meaning in Puppet Theater s voice, in relation to its poetics. This purpose is key to the re-vocalization in contemporary Brazilian Puppet Theater.
Esta pesquisa trata a voz no Teatro de Animação - termo que abraça diversas formas espetaculares híbridas centradas na dinâmica do animado/inanimado, como o teatro de bonecos, de máscaras, de sombras, visual, etc. A voz é abordada, no Teatro de Animação, como produtora de presença e sentido, conforme a teoria de produção de presença de Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht. Investigo como a voz gera presença numa relação com determinada poética no âmbito do Teatro de Animação. A voz no singular refere-se à sua essência como oscilação entre presença e sentido. Todavia, como a voz surge em diferentes contextos culturais e poéticos, ou seja, históricos, a voz na realidade é plural nas suas diversas manifestações. A partir da questão quando a voz é no Teatro de Animação? , procuro identificar poéticas que engendram o princípio pelo qual a voz é. Uma vez identificada a poética, busco distinguir os elementos que geram e constituem a voz, instaurando-a como presença e sentido, numa relação com a sua poética. Na investigação, contemplo autores e artistas que refletem sobre o uso da voz no teatro de animação e exploram seus procedimentos, assim como aqueles que a relegam a segundo plano ou mesmo a banem da cena. Faço um levantamento bibliográfico do assunto, recorro a exemplos de espetáculos nacionais e internacionais assistidos nos últimos três anos no Brasil e utilizo material colhido em entrevistas, seminários e cursos realizados nesse período. Durante a exposição desta pesquisa são individuados procedimentos recorrentes de uso da voz no Teatro de Animação que, em alguns casos, revelaram-se como específicos da linguagem cuja característica é a separação entre boneco-objeto e fonte sonora. Durante a investigação, constato que, embora a voz seja muito utilizada em cena no Teatro de Animação no Brasil, há uma significante ausência da voz como a defino acima: voz como oscilação entre presença e sentido. A partir dos estudos filosóficos de Adriana Cavarero, que descreve um processo de desvocalização numa civilização centrada no logos entendido como razão, chego à conclusão de que esse processo se espelha na cena do teatro de animação. O século XX desponta como um século cuja espetacularidade teatral é calcada na visão, reflexo de uma civilização centrada na imagem, em que o sentido da visão tem primazia sobre os outros sentidos, promovendo a desvocalização do logos, levando a uma desvocalização na cena. Tal conclusão faz com que o propósito da pesquisa - identificação dos redutos vocais e investigação dos procedimentos que instauram uma oscilação de presença e sentido na voz no Teatro de Animação, numa relação com as poéticas - seja fundamental para a revocalização da cena no Teatro de Animação contemporâneo no Brasil.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis finds inspiration in practitioner academics such as Craig and Meyerhold, and is conceived as a practice-informed research degree, consisting of a written element and a practical element that draw on and inspire each other. That there is value in both practising and analysing an art form is argued, and ‘case studies’ are made of practitioner/theorists at either end of the genealogy traced in the research: both those at the beginning of the 20th century and those at the beginning of the 21st. A case is made for judging the work of artists such as Robert Lepage, Robert Wilson, Complicité, and Faulty Optic as exemplars of contemporary Visual Theatre practice, combining and being inspired by the twin modes of puppetness and the cinematic. Alongside case studies of these practitioners sits analysis of the practical element of the thesis: a work-inprogress piece of auteur-led Visual Theatre practice that questions and illuminates the written component of the thesis.

Full textAbstract:
Aims The practical aim of this research project is to create a multi-touch digital puppetry system that simulates shadow theatre environments and translates gestural acts of touch into live and expressive control of virtual shadow figures. The research is focussed on the qualities of movement achievable through the haptics of single and multi-touch control of the digital puppets in the simulation. An associated aim is to create a collaborative environment where multiple performers can control dynamic animation and scenography, and create novel visualisations and narratives. The conceptual aim is to link traditional and new forms of puppetry seeking cultural significance in the 'remediation' of old forms that avail themselves of new haptic resources and collaborative interfaces. The thesis evaluates related prior art where traditional worlds of shadow performance meet new media, digital projection and 3D simulation, in order to investigate how changing technical contexts transform the potential of shadows as an expressive medium. Methodology The thesis uses cultural analysis of relevant documentary material to contextualise the practical work by relating the media archaeology of 2D puppetry-shadows, shadowgraphs and silhouettes-to landmark work in real-time computer graphics and performance animation. The survey considers the work of puppeteers, animators, computer graphics specialists and media artists. Through practice and an experimental approach to critical digital creativity, the study provides practical evidence of multiple iterations of controllable physics-based animation delivering expressive puppet motion through touch and multiuser interaction. Video sequences of puppet movement and written observational analysis document the intangible aspects of animation in performance. Through re-animation of archival shadow puppets, the study presents an emerging artistic media archaeological method. The major element of this method has been the restoration of a collection of Turkish Karagöz Shadow puppets from the Institut International de la Marionnette (Charleville, France) into a playable digital form. Results The thesis presents a developing creative and analytical framework for digital shadow puppetry. It proposes a media archaeological method for working creatively with puppet archives that unlock the kinetic and expressive potential of restored figures. The interaction design introduces novel approaches to puppetry control systems-using spring networks-with objects under physics-simulation that demonstrate emergent expressive qualities. The system facilitates a dance of agency¹ between puppeteer and digital instrument. The practical elements have produced several software iterations and a tool-kit for generating elegant, nuanced multi-touch shadow puppetry. The study presents accidental discoveries-serendipitous benefits of open-ended practical exploration. For instance: the extensible nature of the control system means novel input-other than touch-can provide exciting potential for accessible user interaction, e.g. with gaze duration and eye direction. The study also identifies limitations including the rate of software change and obsolescence, the scope of physics-based animation and failures of simulation. Originality/value The work has historical value in that it documents and begins a media archaeology of digital puppetry, an animated phenomenon of increasing academic and commercial interest. The work is of artistic value providing an interactive approach to making digital performance from archival material in the domain of shadow theatre. The work contributes to the electronic heritage of existing puppetry collections. The study establishes a survey of digital puppetry, setting a research agenda for future studies. Work may proceed to digitise, rig and create collaborative and web-mediated touch-based motion control systems for 2D and 3D puppets. The present study thus provides a solid platform to restore past performances and create new work from old, near forgotten-forms.

Full textAbstract:
This study offers new insights to the knowledge of Venice`s history and theatre historiography. It is the outcome of an interdisciplinary research investigating the visual and performative culture of this unique context though its representations with dramatic figures from the beginning to the end of its history as a republic. The first chapter offers an insight into Medieval Venice focusing on liturgical drama, mystery plays, and civic ritual with display of movable sculptures and puppets. The second chapter sheds light on the relation between puppetry, the commedia, and different forms of spectacle with mechanised or indirectly controlled figures. Presented in the third chapter are the theatrical festivals with wondrous figures that were staged in the outskirts of Padua by two illustrious patrons of the arts, the Paduan Pio Enea II degli Obizzi and the Venetian Marco Contarini. The fourth chapter is dedicated to the debut of puppet opera, and the performances of this genre that were staged in the private and public theatres of Venice during the seventeenth century. The history of puppet opera in Venice continues in the fifth chapter, also making comparisons with performances held in cultural areas that absorbed the Venetian legacy. Critical analysis of the repertory of puppet theatre broadly defined and reflection on the aesthetics and operating techniques of the figures that were used has been made relating texts to specific objects, many of which are unpublished or little known. Shedding light on the Venetian eighteenth century marionette theatres that are extant, attention has also been drawn of the role that these objects played in the history of collecting. In the sixth chapter the chronological account is suspended for a moment to leave room for some reflection on the intertwining between Venice and the Orient based on research findings. Cross-cultural analysis has been made comparing Venice’s puppet theatre traditions not only with those of the near East, but also with China based on material evidence. The seventh and last chapter investigates the relation between puppet theatre and the rising passion for views of the world as a stage, or animated microcosm to capture through observation. There is inevitably much overlap across all these aspects, and yet attempts have been be made to keep them separate in the discussion, either relating them to the time related phenomenon within which they assume greater significance. Following a chronological thread, critical analysis of the puppet theatre manifestations originating in Venice has been carried out placing this genre within the frameworks of other arts, drawing comparisons with other traditions, and bringing to the fore reminiscences from the past at different times in history. All this making every possible effort not to turn the memory of an entertaining art form into the sterile analysis of its ‘faint reflection’.

Assuming that the contemporary puppet theater hybridize to other artistic forms, it is necessary to reveal the co-existence of borders in this language. The research covers mainly the multiple relationships and intersections between contemporary puppet theater and plastic/visual arts, relying on the concepts of hybridity by Nestor Garcia Canclini and polyphony by Mikhail Bakhtin. These concepts were used to analyze the path of Alvaro Apocalypse, plastic artist and theater director, founder of Giramundo Teatro de Bonecos, in Belo Horizonte - MG, specifically in the conception of three plays: Cobra Norato, Giz and Pinocchio. Giramundo is one of the most important groups in brazilian puppet theater panorama, and these relationships with other arts are strongly visible along its course, developing a poetic that highlight the plasticity in the scene

This study investigated how contemporary puppet-based theatre can create deeply imaginative experiences for adult audiences. Designed to interrogate the potential effects of double-vision (Tillis, 1992), the theories of the sublime (Kant, 2008; 2003) and the uncanny (Jentsch, 1906; Freud, 1919) were used to create a series of creative guidelines. As practice-led research, the project embraced an iterative approach consisting of two cycles for creative experimentation, and a third for the creation of the final performance work The Harbinger, presented as a part of La Boite Theatre Company’s mainstage season. A theoretical investigation was also conducted to inform the developing practice.

A presente pesquisa versa sobre a possibilidade ou não da alfabetização geográfica por meio do Teatro de Fantoche como possibilidade de uma prática lúdica, mais envolvente e que permita a autonomia do sujeito em sala de aula. Na coxia buscamos as informações por meio de entrevistas realizadas com sujeitos alunos e professores de terceira série/ano do Ensino Fundamental, em três escolas de Porto Alegre. O Objetivo geral que buscamos foi observar se o lúdico do teatro de Fantoches é uma possibilidade facilitadora da construção do Conhecimento Geográfico. Trabalhamos com a dialógica, a recursividade e o princípio hologramático, na crença não de uma única verdade, mas das verdades serem muitas e também provisórias. Nossos procedimentos no palco basearam-se na Pesquisa Qualitativa. Na primeira cena exercitamos o ato do conhecer os atores, o palco e o Teatro. As reflexões sobre essa cena dizem respeito à construção do conhecimento geográfico com ênfase nos conceitos de Espaço, de Lugar e de Orientação por meio do Teatro de Fantoches. Para tanto buscamos o apoio da Epistemologia Genética para compreender provisoriamente como a criança constrói o conhecimento. Na segunda cena tratamos das questões metodológicas. A terceira cena é dedicada às leituras produzidas na coxia e no palco: no primeiro ato desta cena encontramos as Representações das entrevistas com os sujeitos professores e sujeitos alunos. No segundo ato as representações das oficinas que, nesse momento, analisamos as oficinas de contação de histórias e de construção dos Fantoches. No terceiro ato as Represent(ações) das Apresent(ações); o estudo das representações espaciais e sociais dos sujeitos alunos para a construção do conhecimento, por meio da apresentação teatral com os Fantoches, foi vista como importante para a compreensão do conhecimento geográfico. No último ato, mas nem tão final da peça, dedicamos às reflexões de nossos objetivos com as práticas adotadas no palco. Observamos que há um predomínio nas narrativas dos sujeitos alunos quanto ao brincar, em especial ao lúdico. Procuramos analisar os significados que os sujeitos atribuem ao brincar, bem como o seu papel nas representações espaciais e sociais.This research deals with the possibility or not geographic literacy through the Puppet Theatre as a practical possibility of entertaining, more engaging an denabling the autonomy of the subject in the classroom. Backstage seek information through interviews with subject teachers and students of third grade / year of elementary school, in three schools of Porto Alegre. The general objective was to observe whether we seek to play the puppet theater is a possibility of facilitating the construction of geographical knowledge. We work with the dialogue, theholographic principle and recursion, a belief in not only truth but many truths are also provisional. Our procedures were based on the stage in Qualitative Research. In the first scene exercise the act of knowing the actors, the stage and theater. Reflections on the scene to the construction of geographical knowledge with emphasis on the concepts of space, place and guidance through the puppet theater. To this end we seek the support of Genetic Epistemology to provisionally understand how the child constructs knowledge. In the second scene of treat methodological issues. The third scene is devoted to the readings produced backstage and on stage: in the first act of this scene we find the representations of the interviews with the subjects and subject teachers students. In the second act the representations of the workshops at that time, we analyze the storytelling workshops and construction of puppets. In the third act represents (shares) of Presentations (actions), the study of social and spatial representations of the subjects students to construct knowledge by means of theatrical presentation with puppets, was seen as important for the understanding of geographical knowledge. In the last act, but not as the final piece, dedicated to the reflections of our goals with the practices adopted on stage. We note that there is a predominance in the narratives of the subjects students about the play, especially to play. We tried to analyze the meanings individuals give to the play, as well as its role in social and spatial representations.

Radio puppet performance is the first puppet theater association with communication media.

The musical source of Taiwanese puppet theatre became significantly diverse after 1950s. The audience could hear Latin rhythms in folk songs and popular music presented in Taiwanese puppet theatre, as well as the fusion of a traditional Beiguan tune and Cha Cha Cha. The present study explored the Latin rhythms in Taiwanese puppet theatre in terms of the analyses of social context, theatrical uses, and music. There are three major findings: (1) the combinations of popular music and Latin rhythms facilitate their symbolization of theatrical events and role types; (2) the fight atmosphere and triple form of Paso Doble allow this music to accompany magic combat scenes; (3) the Beiguan tune “Wind in the Pine” blends with cha-cha-cha only in its ostinato sections, thereby establishing contrasts between the ostinato sections and the traditional sections. Due to the invasion of Latin rhythms, Taiwanese puppet theatre shows the moving styles of “Western body”, which are absent in the majority of Xiqu. On the other hand, the innovative theatrical uses of Latin rhythms reflect our society’s cultural hybridity.
