商品描述

This book explores an unacknowledged gap in theatre study and praxis, and establishes an inceptive model for transforming a playscript into a theatrical production involving deaf and hearing artists. The book stipulates that theatrical productions of this nature should strive to go beyond accessibility towards inclusivity by considering deaf perspectives at every stage of the process: When deaf actors are cast in roles assumed to be hearing, how does this change the world of the play? How does the inclusion of a visual language affect staging decisions? How can truly equal access to two different language modalities be achieved for diverse production teams and audiences? Because deaf artists should be involved in the leadership and creative decision making throughout the process, this book is co-written by a deaf and hearing team. The main topics of the book include pre-production preparation, the rehearsal process, and performance. As deaf theatre artists move increasingly into the foreground, it's time for the hearing theatre world to learn how to undertake productions that successfully bridge the deaf and hearing worlds. By including the perspective of directors, actors, designers, and audience members, this guide lays out an ideal process towards achieving that goal.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了戲劇研究和實踐中一個未被承認的空白，並建立了一個初步模型，旨在將劇本轉化為涉及聾人和聽人藝術家的戲劇製作。本書規定，這類戲劇製作應努力超越可及性，朝向包容性發展，並在過程的每個階段考慮聾人的觀點：當聾人演員被選角為假定為聽人的角色時，這如何改變劇本的世界？視覺語言的納入如何影響舞台決策？如何為多元的製作團隊和觀眾實現真正平等的兩種語言模式的接入？因為聾人藝術家應該在整個過程中參與領導和創意決策，本書由聾人和聽人團隊共同撰寫。本書的主要主題包括前期製作準備、排練過程和演出。隨著聾人戲劇藝術家越來越多地走到前台，聽人戲劇界是時候學習如何進行成功橋接聾人和聽人世界的製作了。通過納入導演、演員、設計師和觀眾的觀點，本指南為實現這一目標提供了一個理想的過程。
