The Path to Creation

Résumé du livre

The following is the documentation of my process as an actor-creator in the creation of my thesis project, she. This process has been a journey of discoveries: as a result of my personal, artistic, and academic connections to folklore and modern experimental theatre, I discovered that I wanted to create an experimental theatre piece that engages the audience beyond a voyeuristic level, using mythology and folklore to explore universal connections that human beings have to one another. Chapter One is an overview of the research for the project. Chapter Two discusses the creation of the script for she, and also includes a final draft of the script. In Chapter Three, I describe the production circumstances for the project. Chapter Four is a record of the rehearsal process, and the scored script is also included. In Chapter Five, I discuss discoveries made during the performance of she, and provide an evaluation of the entire process.
