Focused on the contemporary Anglophone adoption from the 1960s
onwards, Beyond Scenography explores the porous state of
contemporary theatre-making to argue a critical distinction between
scenography (as a crafting of place orientation) and scenographics
(that which orientate acts of worlding, of staging). With sections
on installation art and gardening as well as marketing and
placemaking, this book is an argument for what scenography does:
how assemblages of scenographic traits orientate, situate, and
shape staged events. Established stage orthodoxies are revisited -
including the symbiosis of stage and scene and the aesthetic
ideology of 'the scenic' - to propose how scenographics are
formative to all staged events. Consequently, one of the
conclusions of this book is that there is no theatre practice
without scenography, no stages without scenographics. Beyond
Scenography offers a manifesto for a renewed theory of scenographic
practice for the student and professional theatrical designer.
