Podrobný výpis o publikaci

Scenic adaptation of Erben's famous ballad The Golden Spinning Wheel with actors with Down syndrome in the form of site-specific performance: the audience together with actors move to various outdoor scenes around Church of The Visitation of The Virgin Mary in Lechovice near Znojmo and the adjacent rectory (first night show: 12. 8. 2020). In the performance, professional theatre makers (actors, musicians, creative team) and young actors with Down syndrome meet. Directing and dramaturgy create a theatrical message and theatrical poetics precisely thanks to the combination of actors with and without disabilities and thanks to the combination of well-known verses in a non-theatrical specific space. The performance represents both a means and an output of the research project Artistic research of the production of theatrical performances with actors with Down syndrome as effective means of social inclusion, supported by Technology Agency of the Czech Republic, programme ETA (project no. TL02000500) which aims to explore, through methods of artistic research, the possibilities of theatrical work with children and young people with special needs and thus support their integration into society.
