LABORATORY: THEATRICAL ARTS
(objectives)
(…) I believe that to teach in a classroom, in a space, one would need an anatomical classroom, like an anatomical theatre, where a dead body is vivisected and is thus brought to life again in all its particulars, in all its details. Then I really dream, I think, and I am not speaking of theatrical direction, within the space of the theatre with the actors, no, I am speaking of the real classroom of a teacher who has become drama, he has become a dramaturgic body since he speaks of, and in, theatrical language, so complex, so much a mosaic of art (…) Carlo Quartucci, DAMS, University of Bologna
Rome, March 20 – 23, April 23, 24, 26, 27, May 15 – 18, 2 p.m. – 8 p.m. Roma Tre University - DAMS, Columbus Lecture Hall
“ ENTERTAINMENT ARTS LABORATORY” by CARLO QUARTUCCI A laboratory journeying through the languages of stage arts and of the various artistic disciplines in practice: acting, direction, dramaturgy, scenography, visual arts… A laboratory to train the young creators of the contemporary stage. Stage and practical lessons in the flesh. A space for stage investigation to train a “possible” company of young people in stage arts and performing arts.
JOURNEYING Carlo Quartucci’s “Entertainment Arts” is “(…) a journey through the light and shade of battles, perplexities, greatness, poetry, cruelty, a utopia of great figures of the theatre and of art”. A journey through the living dialectic and dramaturgy of artistic languages within stage language… Cartography of the territories of the stage and of stage arts in which people are places and within which places speak. A reciprocal exchange of people, structures, characters and functions. A stage journey, connection and relations among the places of the theatre, of contemporary arts and of university excellence within a stage building.
THE STAGE BUILDING The stage building is a space of on-going research, a dramatized space, a space to be dramatized, a space through which to extend dramaturgic behaviour: a dramaturgic continuum. Another way to understand relations between arts and languages, between the gesture of the player and that of the painter, between stage dramaturgy and the state of actorial art and creation, between directorial creation and staging and therefore between the spectator and the artist, between the space of creative intervention and the audience, between the disciple and the master. The stage construction in the Columbus Lecture Hall will light up with a live stage laboratory in which the “disciple” will be invited to penetrate every stage crevice and every visual perspective, in a continual journey to and fro, COME AND GO BY Samuel Beckett! Among art & theatre, figures and pieces.
ART & THEATRE Between art & theatre, figures & pieces in action… A stage architecture in a dialogue between the still life of PIECES OF ART & THEATRE and the living life of the PERFORMING FIGURES. Theatre on show in pieces and figures – actors, musicians, acrobats, dancers, young actors/students and students/performers – overturning the sense and pivot of stage action. Writing of stage signs, visions of directorial creativity, constructions of actorial dramaturgy, becoming the living flesh and body of the stage in the sparkling moment of the laboratory exercises. Pieces to inhabit and to touch: cinema as theatre, theatre as cinema. Scattered works and visual shrouds. Actors, artists, musicians, acrobats, dancers in a stage field, a magnetic field and an electronic field. Actorial presences and absences: memory of the tragic in a stage body.
THE STAGE GAME OF THE TEACHING/CHARACTER AND OF THE CHARACTER/TEACHER One of the laboratory instruments – devoted to work with young stage students/actors – is the handling fragments of a great theatrical text: P
