WORKSHOP: The shadow and its double – about the contemporary shadow theatre
Repsal 1, Kulturhuset Stadsteatern
Saturday, August 18th, 09:00 – 12:00
In the last thirty years the shadows theatre has undergone a remarkable revolution in technique and in language and one important impetus to this came from Teatro Gioco Vita. Some characteristics of this change were the use of pinpoint lamps, the manipulation of the light, the special handling of the screen, the different kinds of shadow puppets, the projection behind and in front of the screens. For that the traditional limited space of the shadows, which we can look upon as a system of closed techniques and relationships, has been replaced by an open space, rich and dynamic in possibilities and powers of articulation. In our opinion this new space for the shadows is at the heart of the contemporary shadows theatre.
