Verbatim Theatre Methodologies For Community Engaged Practice - 9780367726409

Verbatim Theatre Methodologies for Community Engaged Practice offers a framework for developing original community-engaged productions using a range of verbatim theatre approaches. This book's methodologies offer an approach to community-engaged productions that fosters collaborative artistry, ethically nuanced practice and social intentionality. Through research-based discussion, case study analysis and exercises, it provides a historical context for verbatim theatre; outlines the ethics and methods for community immersion that form the foundation of community-engaged best practice; illuminates the value of interviews and how to go about them; provides clear pathways for translating gathered data into an artistic product, and offers rehearsal room strategies for playwrights, producers, directors and actors in managing the specific context of the verbatim theatre form. Based in diverse, real-world practice that spans regional, metropolitan, large-scale, micro, independent, commercial and curriculum-based work, this is a practical and accessible guide for undergraduates, artists and researchers alike.
