The course aims to provide students with the tools for both historical and theoretical knowledge of the artistic, material, social and relational aspects of theatre, also understood in the broader sense of the performative dimensions of human behaviour. The central objective is a broad and documented knowledge of the present and the past of the performing arts, oriented to enable the student to activate research processes, reconnaissance initiatives and practical organisation in the creative sphere of the performing arts. The first part of the course consists of the study of texts, phenomena, profiles and processes that in the 20th century have expanded the notion of theatre and transformed traditions, crafts, values, concepts and terms of theatre-making. In the final part, documentary materials on contemporary theatre are shared and meetings are organised to orientate the student in the contemporary practices of his/her cultural context.

materiale didattico
One part of the course focuses on Elizabethan theatre and its intertwining of stage practices and dramaturgy. Another focus is devoted to the reading of a play and the reinterpretations that take it from antiquity to the heart of the 20th century: Sophocles' Antigone will be read in its original and Brecht's version. Finally, the course will focus on some books that have inspired 20th century theatre culture, transforming the relationship between text and performance and between theory and practice. In this perspective, the experiences of Artaud, Grotowski and the Living Theatre will be examined.

The course focuses on the transition between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, particularly following the thread of the protagonism of actresses. In this period, women in the theatre have a role that is impossible for other women: they can earn, command, be eminent artists, be points of reference.Testi Adottati
