Shimmers Of Truth In The Art Of Theatre, Natasha M. Goetz

Senior Honors Papers

Many Christians have noted Romans 1:20’s statement that God is reflected in His creation. As a theater student, I have found this to be true even in how theatrical artists actually execute their craft. Thus, for my senior honors thesis I have decided to further study this connection between the Lord and theater, for which I expect to find more of what I have already found in parallels between the Christian walk and theater arts. For the completion of this thesis, research for theatrical content will include acting and design, and research for biblical content will include the ...

The development of a spectacular theatricality that may reflect the aesthetics of a neobaroque society is the outcome of a long process. As any complex system, theatricality endures thanks to its ability to adapt and being resilient. Factors like globalization, research, scientific aproach and risk management have been needed for the theatricality to reach the level we enjoy now. The 3 cases I analyze here (Cirque du Soleil, Robert Lepage and La Fura dels Baus) are good samples of the state of art of the 21st century theatricality and give us an idea where this human expression could be going ...
