Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception in 1974, Canadian Theatre Review has been one of the most important publishers of new Canadian plays. With a script in each issue, CTR has introduced new writers and advocated new approaches to Canadian drama. This volume brings together fifteen of the most significant plays published in CTR between 1974 and 1991. Most have been out of print since their appearance in the journal. They include recognized classics that have transformed Canadian theatre, such as "Ten Lost Years" and "This is for You, Anna," and lesser-known plays by such major writers as Robert Lepage and George F. Walker. Taken together these plays not only expand the boundaries of Canadian drama; they also document an important and exciting period in Canadian theatre. They are vivid testaments to the diversity of contemporary theatrical practice in Canada.

Book excerpt: This latest issue of the Canadian Theatre Review takes a lively, thought-provoking, and sometimes controversial look at the role of theatre with respect to some of the most pressing ecological issues of our time.How do plays and performances respond to instances of species loss, climate change and environmental injustice? How do directors and critics respond to such plays? How do we create theatre that is more sustainable?Co-editors Sheila Rabillard and Nelson Gray have brought together a community of artists, directors and scholars to address these questions from a wide range of perspectives. The result is both informative and inspiring: an engaging series of articles, artistic accounts, interviews and reviews on a topic of vital interest to everyone, along with a newly published script—The Eco Show--by Daniel Brooks, one of this country’s most celebrated theatre artists.

Book excerpt: In this issue, contributors dig into the fertile ground of the artist and community theatrical collaboration. Our choice to focus on artists reflects a shift in how this work is placed within arts and culture funding bodies, neighbourhoods and organizations, and among artists. This field has now attracted the ardour of the mainstream. This development is accompanied by the delights and dangers all love affairs entail. Addressing the perspectives of outsiders, insiders, educators, creators, and audience members, the contributors to this issue grapple with the changing definitions of community arts. The collection offers a mix that reflects the integration of theory and practice, the virtual and the embodied, celebration and mourning, rage and reflection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Canada, adaptation is a national mode of survival, but it is also a way to create radical change. Throughout history, Canadians have been inheritors and adaptors: of political systems, stories, and customs from the old world and the new. More than updating popular narratives, adaptation informs understandings of culture, race, gender, and sexuality, as well as individual experiences. In Political Adaptation in Canadian Theatre Kailin Wright investigates adaptations that retell popular stories with a political purpose and examines how they acknowledge diverse realities and transform our past. Political Adaptation in Canadian Theatre explores adaptations of Canadian history, Shakespeare, Greek mythologies, and Indigenous history by playwrights who identify as English-Canadian, African-Canadian, French-Canadian, French, Kuna Rappahannock, and Delaware from the Six Nations. Along with new considerations of the activist potential of popular Canadian theatre, this book outlines eight strategies that adaptors employ to challenge conceptions of what it means to be Indigenous, Black, queer, or female. Recent cancellations of theatre productions whose creators borrowed elements from minority cultures demonstrate the need for a distinction between political adaptation and cultural appropriation. Wright builds on Linda Hutcheon's definition of adaptation as repetition with difference and applies identification theory to illustrate how political adaptation at once underlines and undermines its canonical source. An exciting intervention in adaptation studies, Political Adaptation in Canadian Theatre unsettles the dynamics of popular and political theatre and rethinks the ways performance can contribute to how one country defines itself.

Book excerpt: Health studies and performance studies have too rarely walked hand-in-hand despite their mutual interest in the practical relations between human bodies and their environments. This issue of CTR features the work of artists, health researchers, and theatre scholars collaborating at the intersections between performance studies and health and traversing the professed boundary between different ways of knowing. The lived, experiencing body stands at the centre of these inquiries, which raise a number of provocative questions of interest to theatre and health practitioners alike. Can performance be a site of healing? Are we still invested in the ideal of the “tortured artist” or can artistic creation begin from a place of pleasure rather than pain? Who defines what kinds of emotional relationships are “useful” in the context of medical education? How do social identities get constructed around expectations of health? Do representations of illness in the social sphere build expectations of how we should experience it? What ethical blind spots arise in research-based performance? These inquiries are anchored by an investment in the potentialities of performance to make visible what is otherwise made socially invisible in subjects and bodies defined by health issues. The projects in this issue seek, each in their own way, to inspire changes in relationships and priorities among participants who are enabled by performance to imagine different modes of engagement and new possibilities for action around health and health care.

Download or read book Performance Studies in Canada written by Laura Levin and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception as an institutionalized discipline in the United States during the 1980s, performance studies has focused on the interdisciplinary analysis of a broad spectrum of cultural behaviours including theatre, dance, folklore, popular entertainments, performance art, protests, cultural rituals, and the performance of self in everyday life. Performance Studies in Canada brings together a diverse group of scholars to explore the national emergence of performance studies as a field in Canada. To date, no systematic attempts has been made to consider how this methodology is being taught, applied, and rethought in Canadian contexts, and Canadian performance studies scholarship remains largely unacknowledged within international discussions about the discipline. This collection fills this gap by identifying multiple origins of performance studies scholarship in the country and highlighting significant works of performance theory and history that are rooted in Canadian culture. Essays illustrate how specific institutional conditions and cultural investments – Indigenous, francophone, multicultural, and more – produce alternative articulations of “performance” and reveal national identity as a performative construct. A state-of-the-art work on the state of the field, Performance Studies in Canada foregrounds national and global performance knowledge to invigorate the discipline around the world.
