Dramaturgy, in its many forms, is a fundamental and indispensable
element of contemporary theatre. In its earliest definition, the
word itself means a comprehensive theory of "play making." Although
it initially grew out of theatre, contemporary dramaturgy has made
enormous advances in recent years, and it now permeates all kinds
of narrative forms and structures: from opera to performance art;
from dance and multimedia to filmmaking and robotics. In our
global, mediated context of multinational group collaborations that
dissolve traditional divisions of roles as well as unbend
previously intransigent rules of time and space, the dramaturg is
also the ultimate globalist: intercultural mediator, information
and research manager, media content analyst, interdisciplinary
negotiator, social media strategist. This collection focuses on
contemporary dramaturgical practice, bringing together
contributions not only from academics but also from prominent
working dramaturgs. The inclusion of both means a strong level of
engagement with current issues in dramaturgy, from the impact of
social media to the ongoing centrality of interdisciplinary and
intermedial processes. The contributions survey the field through
eight main lenses: world dramaturgy and global perspective
dramaturgy as function, verb and skill dramaturgical leadership and
season planning production dramaturgy in translation adaptation and
new play development interdisciplinary dramaturgy play analysis in
postdramatic and new media dramaturgy social media and audience
outreach. Magda Romanska is Visiting Associate Professor of Slavic
Languages and Literatures at Harvard University, Associate
Professor of Theatre and Dramaturgy at Emerson College, and
Dramaturg for Boston Lyric Opera. Her books include The
Post-Traumatic Theatre of Grotowski and Kantor (2012), Boguslaw
Schaeffer: An Anthology (2012), and Comedy: An Anthology of Theory
and Criticism (2014).
