{"product_id":"ibsen-on-theatre-frode-hellan-9781848423121","title":"Ibsen on Theatre","description":"Three new productions of plays by Henrik Ibsen open somewhere in the world every week. Moreover, they are adapted into multiple genres: Chinese and Western Opera, Japanese Noh theatre, puppet plays, musicals, dance performances, tourist spectacles, promenade performances, applied theatre, community events, and every possible screen technology. \u003cp\u003e The more successful Ibsen became as a playwright, the more reluctant he was to make public pronouncements about the practice of theatre, but his thoughts on the art form can be gleaned by mining his prefaces, letters, speeches and newspaper articles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e For the first time, these fragments have been gathered together in one volume. Arranged chronologically, they throw a unique light on Ibsen's views on theatre production, casting, translation, the business of theatre, and most importantly his own plays. The result is an invaluable resource for those who seek to know what Ibsen himself thought about his work and about the theatre of his time. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eIbsen on Theatre\u003c\/i\u003e is edited, introduced and annotated by Frode Helland and Julie Holledge, with new translations by May-Brit Akerholt.
