Marat. / Sade is example
UDK-FIRST WITH CAMPUS NEWS
Two stage productions presented recently by the University Theatre are "good examples" of the new style of epic play, Kenneth White said Tuesday.
"THE NEW STYLE of the epic play can be found in both "Marat/ Sade" and "Oh, What a Lovely War," two plays presented recently by the theater department." White said.
New epic style reigns
Characteristics of the new epics include fragmented structure, non-psychological characters and "quite often a weird handling of time." White said.
White, associate professor in KU's department of French and Italian, was the featured speaker for the April theater department research colloquium.
"THE OLD EPIC used to be patriotic," White said. "But now, the epic is changing. A good example of this is in "Marat Sade" where the play concerns itself not just with France but with liberty in general."
White, who added that one of the new epic's originators is French playwright Roger Planchon, called the new theater medium "supra-national," meaning without national loyalties.
"Marat Sade," by Peter Wiess, is a free-wheeling play taken
White, who has been in France 14 times, studied at the Sorbonne in Paris, has been associated with several French repertory theater companies since 1945, and is now researching the new epic style in French, Italian and American plays.
