Stage-Play and Screen-Play - The intermediality of theatre and cinema (Paperback)

Dialogue between film and theatre studies is frequently hampered by the lack of a shared vocabulary. Stage-Play and Screen-Play sets out to remedy this, mapping out an intermedial space in which both film and theatre might be examined. Each chapter's evaluation of the processes and products of stage-to-screen and screen-to-stage transfer is grounded in relevant, applied contexts. Michael Ingham draws upon the growing field of adaptation studies to present case studies ranging from Martin McDonagh's The Cripple of Inishmaan and RSC Live's simulcast of Richard II to F.W. Murnau's silent Tartuff, Peter Bogdanovich's film adaptation of Michael Frayn's Noises Off, and Akiro Kurosawa's Ran, highlighting the multiple interfaces between media. Offering a fresh insight into the ways in which film and theatre communicate dramatic performances, this volume is a must-read for students and scholars of stage and screen.
