4.9/5 (18424 ratings)

Description:Katie Mitchell: Beautiful, Illogical Acts offers the first comprehensive study of Britain's most internationally recognised, influential and controversial theatre director. It examines Mitchell's innovations in fourth-wall realism, opera and Live Cinema across major British and European institutions, bringing three decades of practice vividly to life.Informed by first-hand rehearsal observations and in-depth conversations with the director and her collaborators, Fowler investigates the intense and immersive qualities of Mitchell's distinctive theatrical realism and challenges mainstream narratives about realism as a defunct or inherently conservative genre. He explores Mitchell's theatre - and its often polarised reception - to question familiar assumptions governing contemporary performance criticism, including common binaries that pit realism against radical experimentation, auteurs against texts, feminists against Naturalism, and Britain against Europe. By examining a career trajectory that intersects with huge cultural change, Fowler places Mitchell at the centre of urgent contemporary debates about cultural transformation and its genuinely inclusive potential.This is an essential book for those interested in Katie Mitchell, British theatre, directing, the transformative power of realism and feminism in contemporary theatre practice, and challenges to hierarchical distributions of power inside the mainstream.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
