THEATRE in a time of TROUBLE

Posted by dance_and_theatre , Reader : 1039 , 10:57:07 | Category : Dance 2008 Theatre 2008 Bangkok Festivals 2008

While thousands of audiences enjoyed a wide-variety of outdoors free-admission theatrical performances at Santi Chaiprakarn Park, officially the hub of Bangkok Theatre Festival 2008, the attendance at other venues, city-wide, was pretty disappointing.

BUTOH: LIVE (plus photographed) in Bangkok

Posted by dance_and_theatre , Reader : 1210 , 09:31:34 | Category : Dance 2008 Theatre 2008 Bangkok Festivals 2008

Two arts centres in Bangkok play host to Butoh masters this month. Butoh, a contemporary theatrical performance art originated in post-Hiroshima Japan born out of despair and confusion and hence the nickname “dance of darkness”, has come a long way. Since its beginning in 1959, this amalgam of dance, theatre, and improvisation with influences from traditional Japanese dance theatre and German Express....

DHARMA in the DANCE

Komonlagoon’s Thai contemporary dance aims to prove that Buddhist teachings are more relevant to us than we’ve ever thought. “Whenever someone speak of Buddhist teachings their friends would say something like, ‘You should enter monkhood’ and I wonder whether Dharma is really that remote from our way of living today,” says choreographer and director Thongchai Hannarong of his inspiration to stage “T....

Evidently, dance dialogue—in which skillful dancers, frequently from different backgrounds, not only create new physical movements together, but also talk to each other, and to us the audience—has become a hot trend in international performing arts. This is probably not because the dancers want to move their limbs less and their jaws more. Rather, there are more secrets and stories, both behind the m....

"Are you eligible for any concession?”, the box office person at Melbourne’s Malthouse Theatre asked me on the phone last Monday morning when I was purchasing a ticket to watch a play, whose allocation for media tickets had run out. Admittedly, I was stunned. Usually, it’s the other way around: we audiences have to ask—or, in many cases, beg for discounts, and, in some cases, drink a certain b....
