Showers At Summer Camp

- Score


In previous shows, I often sought to redefine the boundaries, to excite the paradoxes, to blur the lines between actor and character, reality and fiction. In addressing
Spring Awakening , I would continue to pursue this.

A question often arises: how to play children 14 years of players who have double?
This is not a default choice is biased staging. This difference is a strength, a true support of the game will not be subject to imitation. I would like to solicit the players remaining who they are, suggest and guess the child they were. There is no takeover of one over the other.
Kantor died in class, had assigned the roles of young schoolchildren to actors very old. In their back, they saw the corpse of their childhood. Here the distance is smaller, but the dialogue remains the same.

Looking through the room, I feel like an elk, a vitality, something instinctual that should be held accountable. I wish we could hear movement inside the actors (the beating of the heart, blood in the temples), that opens each scene and after a race and the breath is palpable. I would also like the sensuality expressed fully.
It seems to me to tell the child he would go through the body, the body discussed, but the body moving, dancing body.
For the first time, I want to link my work that of a choreographer. David Wampler, dancer and choreographer has often explored throughout his shows, the group's report against the individual, he also worked on a formal set of privacy.
In conjunction with this work, I explore the movement of a less cerebral, less narrative. I like to give life to this group of children other than through the text and dialogue, as in the interstices of the scenes the whole place is made to move and dance to find the throbbing, seething that seems internal text.

Music and sound will also important. Olivier Pasquet who works at IRCAM, has often worked on forms of musical theater, he recently worked with Aperghis for its machine parts. He will sign the soundtrack to Spring Awakening .

Visually, I guess for the actors to create a huge playground. Steep terrain because of bumps, holes, water holes, scaffolding ... A united space that can evolve separately considering a forest, a dump, a graveyard ... recreate the pace and atmosphere of the seasons: summer, autumn, winter spring. This will close the drawings of Henry Darger.

Numerous commentators Spring Awakening and I think particularly of Freud and Lacan, have mostly emphasized the feelings of children, the effect produced on them the awakening of sexuality. In this analysis, the repressive character played by parents and the values of bourgeois EDUCED are sidelined. It is an essential part. It's still the aspect that interests me the least, it seems almost obsolete. By working to adapt the piece, I sought to minimize the maximum the role of parents, but to make them exist as off-field, at least not to make them responsible for all the ills of their children. It is a radical bias. But it seems that things have changed dramatically over these issues. A stork is no longer a credible hypothesis, one click for an explanation much more plausible and more detailed evidence by the image.
By working with high school students, I realized that the drama that roamed the room (suicide, abortion, prison house of correction ...) had not lost their topicality. As in the play, we attends a failing education system, it simply educates more children today as a century ago.
I want to talk about today's children.

Wedekind's writing is radical, there is no complacency, Spring Awakening flirts with cruelty, but never forget the humor, the play allows himself lyricism, but n is not a shoddy lyricism. The characters have aspirations, they must still manage to resolve their contradictions.
Spring Awakening : The title carries with it the problem part. Awakening of consciousness, sensuality, sexuality ...
How to negotiate the turn?
is the age when one is no longer a child, it loses its status as an officially innocent, but that status did not he always been overused?
Spring: no season knows so much upheaval.

SPRING AWAKENING OF SPRING AWAKENING


"I began to write without a plan, intending to write what amuses me. The plan of the piece came after the third stage and combined personal experiences and those of my comrades class. Almost every scene is a real event. "
F. Wedekind, Correspondence Address

Spring Awakening is not pull the thread of a story, but more is to confront a language and writing that allow themselves everything : tragedy, poetry, pathos, humor ...

In Spring Awakening , Wedekind noted this particular period if the child moves into adulthood. He is talking about change. Mutation
bodies but also souls, the unconscious is just beginning to reveal its secrets and consciousness must accommodate the harsh reality of the mysteries of procreation. These are concrete questions. Here, every one to take his party to get by but not as he wants as he can.
Do not rely on parents to inform, to say how it happens or how it's done: a stork, and the case is in the bag!
We are in the spring, the flowers are there, not fruit.

Melchior, Wendla, Moritz, Ilse, Martha, Hans, Thea, Ernst: these are the heroes (victims?) This Kindertragödie.
Martha pray that no more than the bat, while Wendla, her dream to know the sweetness of the whip. At sunset, two boys kissing, they project into the future would be well-millionaire Hans, Ernst, her pastor with his wife and children.
Moritz admits his ignorance about the mysteries of life, "Melchior improvised sex education teacher. Ilse has been
long gone from theory to practice, but already, she regrets the sweetness birthday parties.
is that spring does not spare our characters, two of them will find death. Wedekind and yet insists Regrets "By working, I put myself in mind of not losing the humor in any scene, whether she was serious ... We do not always want to see any humor. "The humor here is a valuable indication that brings a true reading of the play.

Published in 1891, the play caused a scandal and had to negotiate with censorship, we saw a quick to implement excite the lust of the spectator. Since we understand it better.
Brecht saw in a moralist Wedekind. On the sour side of the coin, it is actually moral issue, but also information. The whole system of good Prussian education is undermined. Ignorance is the worst vice and reality must be accepted as it is, albeit not according to our desires. Yet
Wedekind is not a theorist or destroyer because he always acts like a poet. With Lulu, The awakening of spring is one of his finest dramatic poems. Like all great works, it does ceases to fascinate and reveal its secrets, or rather to keep to themselves. Embark Spring Awakening is willing to make a trip whose destination is unknown, is to take all risks, starting with getting lost.

Jacques Lacan
Preface to The Awakening of Spring, Gallimard collection

Thus a playwright in 1891 addresses the matter of what is for boys to have sex with girls, they did not think scoring without the awakening of their dreams. Remarkable
be staged as such: it is to demonstrate not be satisfied for all, to admit that if it misses, it's for everyone.
Suffice to say that is unheard of.

ARTHUR KUTSCHER

Wedekind, Leben und Werk

The dramaturgy of Wedekind is an dramatic lyrical tendencies, which do not meet the cutting tables which suffice to themselves, concentrates of life, which can contain multiple scenes, but also only a few sentences, when it comes to evoking an atmosphere particularly intense. Thus the moments are more or less autonomous, and we see no real common thread: the only stages of development, perhaps a mosaic. There is no action in the usual sense. Cohesion born of increasing intensity, a stepwise progression of events, organization charts with their effect of parallel and contrast, or even those that do no movement is important. What gives the form its necessity.

Henry Darger

Drawings The old man died in 1973 at age 81 at the hospice. Diver in the kitchen of a hospital, he had lived 40 years in a single room in a boarding house, without heirs, he bequeathed all his property to his landlord. He lost his mother to 4 years, nicknamed "Crazy" from his childhood, he was placed in 8-year pension, then 12, caught masturbating in public, in an institution for mentally disabled: there seems to have suffered the worst abuse, and he fled to 17 years old when his father died. Very devout, considered a bit "cheesy" by his neighbors, he had only one friend, also marginal to it, and lived in seclusion in his room, his application of adopting a little girl was refused. He was also obsessed with the weather (as Kosek).

After his death, his landlord entered his room and, amid a jumble indescribable, discovered thousands of pages and hundreds of watercolors and illustrations, his work, The Story of Vivian Girls, episode what is known as the Realms of the Unreal, of the violent war-glandéco Angelinnian, caused by the Child Slave Rebellion. He started writing in 1910, traumatized by the tragedy happened to a little girl kidnapped and raped (and having lost the photo of this little girl, he kept religiously), and it illustrates from 1918. Darger shows us scenes of shocking brutality, but where the characters are angelic little girls in idyllic settings, always the same face without expression, without individuality. His paintings are merely apocalyptic violence, abuse, strangulation, evisceration. On one of them (detail above), worthy of a Massacre of the Innocents, the blood is flowing, girls are hanged, disemboweled, stabbed, crucified (one upside down), choked by lassos; throne amidst an anatomical drawing of viscera taken from a medical encyclopedia. The main theme is of course the struggle between good and evil, Christianity and paganism, girls pure and terrible enemy, is the loss of the golden age, and efforts to find him by martyrdom, by the accession to holiness.

All drawings are covered in soft colors, soft; Darger, drawing badly, glue or decal patterns illustrated catalogs or childish collected in bins. It ignores the prospect, his story in a single plate panorama. He invents a geography, place names, flags, uniforms inspired by the independence war or civil war. A drawing of cave shelter to unfathomable depths, full of thundering sounds and smells sweet, is invaded by black ink devouring the whole page.

We will discuss in turn Goya, Callot, Norman Rockwell Chapman brothers or Glen Baxter, but it should be called Sade to the rescue.
