In September-October 2010 and February-March 2011, Diana Cozma had
the privilege of watching the rehearsals of The Chronic Life,
directed by Eugenio Barba, in Holstebro, Denmark, when she lived at
Odin Teatret's guest house. Eugenio Barba's dramaturgy is discussed
in the first part of the book, The Biography of a Dramaturgical
Language, while the second part, The Dramaturgy of a Spectator,
based on her rehearsal diary, reveals her reflections on Barba's
evocative dramaturgy and her emotional and intellectual responses
to the rehearsal process. "I feel the author's intensity in
describing the actions and thoughts of the director and the actors
who for years have accompanied her in her writing both in Romanian
and English. I recognise the same tension, the same desire and
effort that flow from a certain passionate reaction in the human
being: gratitude towards the person who opened our eyes and
awakened our energies. I recognise the origin of this writing, the
nature of its particular style. It reminds me of my struggle with
words or with the incandescence of the actors, in the attempt to
cross over into that dimension of reality which forces us to go
beyond what we are. It is a struggle that is constantly accompanied
by the temptation to abandon and give up. Style is the luminous
radiography of the darkness within us." (excerpt from the Foreword
by Eugenio Barba).
