Description

Adapting Performance Between Stage and Screen by Victoria Lowe provides a new foundation for discussions about theater and film. This book establishes a framework for considering adaptations between the two mediums, focusing on performance and event. The author examines how cultural values are articulated in the act of translating between media, exploring issues surrounding theatrical naturalism and cinematic realism. Case studies from British film and theater history illustrate that adaptations cannot be divorced from their historical and cultural context. By analyzing phenomena such as National Theatre Live, this book foregrounds the "events" of theater and cinema, highlighting new avenues for exploration in adaptation studies.
