| Abstract: | This video essay offers a methodology aimed at making historical figures from theatre and performance relevant to contemporary studies, practice, and training. It uses Maurice Maeterlinck’s essay ‘The Tragedy in Daily Life’ as a case-study to demonstrate how this contemporaneity is achieved by i) using fragments from the essay as a stimulus for generating performance material and (ii) transforming a key concept, idea, or theme into an instance of actor training. An accompanying Research Statement contextualises the project. |
