Resumo de Exploration Of Text

Sitting absorbing the meaning of a piece is quite a banal method of interpretation. Some forms of theatre do not even allow you to be able to absorb meaning. By it?s very nature theatre must project meaning, even if the meaning projected is un-intentional on behalf of the performers.
Perhaps theatre is not about the performers and the meaning? Maybe it is about the overall experience of the audience?
You can take away an audience and still be left with a performer? No because surely without an audience the performer becomes merely a person? The mixture of both audience and performer.

Take me down, I will not tolerate
The intrusion any longer. You must release
Me. Now.
If you do not then the trouble you are in will be tripled.
I am not going to except the manner in which I am being treated.
Constructions can be made and broken.
Construction is what we judge everything against.
Sitiing and watching us up here, is this text not creating a strange construction within your mind. Also within the readers mind.
Shoot him. Just kill him make
Him pay for his insanity, his
Crying.
Placing words onto a page is construction. Even within this piece, I am playing against a previous construction so as to create a new way of examining text into performance.
Bollocks.
If you place anything in any order, whether you see a meaning for doing so or not, people will construct a meaning. Although this is an apparent linear structure, easy to follow?
Even now continuing the sentence down here, it can still be followed. That is fine, easy to construct. Why is it not open?
Giraffe, Jarvis Cocker, Speakers, Showgirls.
She looked at me
And again looked
An audience should be the most important people when making theatre. Or perhaps only when making drama.
I may place any words I want, even lists of any objects that pop into my head. I have found no meaning or connection within them.
Yet now as the words enter your head, there is a block of another thought passage attempting to link in my list into the meaning you have started to decode from this text.
Yes that?s it. Put him down now

Or there will be trouble, I mean
It.
Visual stimulation must not be limited to pictures. The forgotten art of the text.

So if you are shown or read realism as a performer
You will need to be making certain assumptions
To perform the piece in whichever style you wish
These decisions are not given to you. Maybe
Within the text you are guided in certain ways
Maybe they are not. So in performing realism
They construct meaning. That is therefore open
On a different level to other pieces but open never
The less.
