Odin Treatret 2000 by John Andreasen & Annelis Kuhlmann & Julia Varley
This title should be of interest to actors, dancers, writers, directors, choreographers and others involved in creative theatre production. It should also be a valuable resource for anyone who is captivated by the art and craft of the theatre.The Odin Teatret was founded in 1964 in Norway and for 34 years has been based in Holstebro, Denmark, away from the capital and the centre for theatre. It also tours in other countries. What makes this theatre special in comparison to others, is that "it comprehends theatre as a specific social and spatial reality, often expressed through the metaphor of a monastery, ghetto or exile". The theatre laboratory has many other activities than the mere creation of theatre performances; it also conducts seminars, conferences and meetings with theatre people from around the world. It has published a series of books and magazines about theatre technique and theory and produced films and videos. In her introduction, Julia Varley tells the history of Odin Teatret and its creative philosophy of presenting and studying performing art, going at least one step further than other theatres or theatre laboratories by "turning to the tradition of theatre, with the ambition of redefining the actor's organic artistic process and artisitc scenic behaviour." This title should be of interest to actors, dancers, writers, directors, choreographers and others involved in creative theatre production. It should also be a valuable resource for anyone who is captivated by the art and craft of the theatre. |
