Theatrical Reality
Intellect Books (Verlag)
978-1-78320-586-8 (ISBN)
Performance, dramaturgy and scenography are often explored in isolation, but in Theatrical Reality, Campbell Edinborough describes their connectedness in order to investigate how the experience of reality is constructed and understood during performance. Drawing on sociological theory, cognitive psychology and embodiment studies, Edinborough analyses our seemingly paradoxical understanding of theatrical reality, guided by the contexts shaping relationships between performer, spectator and performance space. Through a range of examples from theatre, dance, circus and film, Theatrical Reality examines how the liminal spaces of performance foster specific ways of conceptualising time, place and reality.
Campbell Edinborough is a lecturer in Drama and Theatre Practice at the University of Hull. His research applies somatic paradigms of experience and cognition to the study of dance, theatre and performance. This research is informed by his study of somatic practices and his work as a Feldenkrais practitioner. He has published and presented papers on performance training, somatics and performance and cognition. His current research is interested in the study of liminal spaces as sites for empathetic engagement and deliberation.
