The book documents and analyses the effects of utilising Greek tragedy within both Punchdrunk’s creative development windows, and the company’s final staged productions. It features material stretching from \u003cem\u003eThe House of Oedipus \u003c\/em\u003e(2000) right through to \u003cem\u003eThe Burnt City \u003c\/em\u003e(2022-23), on which the author worked as dramaturg. Chapters include rehearsal studies, explorations of how Greek literature can shape an audience’s experience in immersive theatre, and considerations of how \u003cem\u003eThe Burnt City\u003c\/em\u003e might change our understanding of the poetics of immersion in antiquity. Overall, \u003cem\u003ePunchdrunk on the Classics\u003c\/em\u003e provides an unparalleled depth of insight into an individual Punchdrunk production, and highlights the until-now overlooked significance of antiquity within Punchdrunk’s practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWinner of the 2024 Rob Jordan Prize for Theatre and Performance Studies. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2023-11-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031430664\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-43067-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 233\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44810054828172,"sku":"9783031430664","price":125.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031430664.jpg?v=1778006055","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783031430664","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
