Brechtian Staging

Split-role

Lighting

Multi-roling

  • This is where more than one actor plays the same character.

  • For example, the actor playing the main character might change from scene to scene.

Minimal set / costume / props

  • Brecht believed in keeping lighting simple.

  • He believed in using harsh white light as this "illuminates the truth."
  • Multi-roling is when an actor plays more than one character onstage.

  • Also, in big theatre productions it is cheaper but more difficult.
  • Complex costumes might mean that the sense of theatre, or pretending to be something else, was lost.
  • Often one item can be used in a variety of ways.
  • A suitcase might become a desk, or a car door or a footstool.

ACTIVITY!!!

We will give each of your groups a prop (weird object)

You will have to devise a scene with these certain objects- however you must use these objects as something other than they are !!!
