In bookshops from September 18, 2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n How can theater respond politically to the climate crisis? This book presents various responses and reflects on the possible impact of theater.<\/p>\n The book reflects on various theatrical responses: practical commitments, based on the social responsibility of establishments and companies; new languages and aesthetic strategies to promote a political imagination and challenge citizen spectators; reflections on the potential effects of the theatricalities developed up to the early 2020s. Contemporary theaters are seeking to overturn our apprehension of reality and action, and to promote the ecologization of culture, which also calls into question the acception of theatrical art itself.<\/p>\n Edited by :<\/b>\u00a0Beaufils Eliane<\/a>,\u00a0Perrin Clim\u00e8ne<\/a> The climate emergency is forcing the theater to reflect on the changes to be made and the forms of commitment to be developed. It is prompting theatres and companies to transform, sometimes radically, their production models. Some shows also call on the audience as citizens, inviting them to take action in a wide variety of ways. Artists are seeking to change the way we perceive reality and action, to promote the ecologization of culture, and in so doing, are challenging our understanding of the profoundly anthropocentric art of theater.<\/p>\n In the light of these experiments, this book examines the experimentation of ecological entanglements on stage, the transformative potential of emotions and imagination, and the place given to tragedy and critical thought.<\/p>\n \u00c9liane Beaufils<\/strong> is a senior lecturer in theater studies at the University of Paris 8.
