Kurbas Readings

ACADEMIC HERALD

Theatre: continuum, codes, paradoxes of interpretation
No. 1, 2006
ISBN 966-96527-5-8

The Les’ Kurbas State Centre for Theatre Arts is initiating an academic herald series in which contemporary theory and practice, authorial-directorial techniques, hypotheses, risks, “open searches”, and the provocation of non-standard sensations will intersect and find their place. The herald’s structure is comprised of a theoretical section proposing fundamental scholarship along with sections in topical criticism, master-class practices, a “straight talk” section, and an “open area”. Each section is preceded by a preamble proposing conventions for reading the texts. Each section has its own curator. The current issue of the herald has been prepared by Centre staff. In the future we invite talented individuals and those interested in new horizons of interpreting our life in general to participate. New authors will preferably possess a taste for new theory and for experimentation as such.
