I went at saw it. it wasn't really that much of a comedy - just had its humorous moments. plus the director stayed afterwards and answered all our questions about the HSC ;-)Originally posted by esther
oh yeah i forgot but i duno if anyone went to see the king lear at unsw.... theyve got a realli good one that u can talk about.... they dun use any costumes at all they use completely all white, they use lighting, projection and sound to protray stuff.... they cut out the fool and gave the parts to kent i think it is and they hab a young cast... and they also changed some of the lines into simple english and their pace was realli was fast it finished rather more quickly than we expected
i think thats all i hab to say.....
oh yeah it was more a comedy than a tragedy....
thanks but what do you mean by dramatic techniques? For example how they emphasise the storm scene?Originally posted by johnson
* productions of king lear (and make reference to the dramatic techniques used in the prod's, whether they are video, film or theatre)
thanks for that. I just realised our teacher has been teaching "interpretations" as "productions" i.e. making them the same thing.Originally posted by johnson
after reading the syllabus thingy, our teacher cut what we need to analyse down to a few sections:
* critics views of KL (with references to specfiic critics)
* interpretations of the play (such as feminist, freudian, jungian, marxist, postmodernist, etc)
* productions of king lear (and make reference to the dramatic techniques used in the prod's, whether they are video, film or theatre)
* themes within king lear (major themes are power, chaos vs order, nature...ummm...cant think of any tohers atm)
* language techniques (dram. irony, soliloquies, imagery (animal), symbolism (storm and...blindness?)
hope that helps!
