The Radical Act of Listening: Making Documentary and Investigative Theatre
Autor KJ Sanchezen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 sep 2024
This book looks at how listening can radically bring about change through documentary and investigative theatre. It examines the mechanics and value of listening and how theatre practitioners can use these skills to create theatre. What does it mean to really listen, especially during a time when everyone is shouting? Can we listen without an agenda? Can we take what we hear and find ethical ways to share it with others so that we capture nuance, complexity, contradiction, i.e., all things human? In exploring these questions, author KJ Sanchez shares conversations with peers and fellow artists who work in the fields of interview-based and non-fiction art practices, to look at what it takes to be a great listener and a great theatre maker.
Featuring key artists, themes, and practices, this book is written for students and practitioners interested in creating documentary and investigative theatre, as well as other interview-based artforms.

Recenzii
"Ground-breaking theatre-maker KJ Sanchez has given us both a manual and a manifesto. Her comprehensive knowledge of the art of the interview is delivered here in clear and lucid terms, braided with inspiring examples (from her own career, and from other leaders in the field) of how private reflection can be transformed into public artistry. Sanchez never loses sight of the fact that the true 'heroes' of this work are those being interviewed; those brave and vulnerable enough to give testimony in the courtroom of their own lives. A moving, bracing, and indispensable book for theatre-makers and citizens of the world alike."
