Descrição do Produto
Jatinder Verma has been a pioneering figure in the development of British South Asian theatre, and a prominent spokesperson for the importance of increased diversity amongst playwrights, actors, directors, designers, and producers on the mainstream British stage. As co-founder and former Artistic Director of Tara Arts, he developed a new aesthetic style known as ''Binglish'' which creates a hybrid dramaturgy of languages, training and performance forms, and styles of acting, and design, that operates to establish a negotiation between cultures which reflects contemporary Britain. Verma is acknowledged as being a leading practitioner and director, as well as writer about theatre and culture, who has transformed the face of theatre in Britain and internationally.
This book combines:
a detailed biography giving the social and artistic context of Vermas work and his work with Tara Arts;
an exploration of Vermas own writings on Binglish, including his use of a range of performance forms and philosophies from different cultures, such as the importance of the Natyashastra in his thinking and practice;
a stylistic analysis of his key productions, including Tartuffe, TheMerchant of Venice, Macbeth, and the Bollywood pantomimes;
pathways into some of the practical exercises relating to the dramaturgical style of Binglish devised by Jatinder Verma.
As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners offer unbeatable value for todays student.
