Hello! I'm a new follower. We watched this video at English class and I loved how articulate and expressive you are with your hands and also how good you're explaining everything. Bravo!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@OrganicActing yes.... I have exams on this...bin watching a lot of videos about Brecht buh seem complexed until I came across yours....So explanatory, I’m really happy I understood this.
Your emphasis on objectivity seems a little misplaced. Rather, Brecht is more about creating as much *awareness* of social conditions as possible in the actor so that the audience can factor those into their reception of the performance. So, an actor appreciates their class, sex, age, ethnicity, sexuality, etc. and triangulates their performances in relation to the other figures, who are also aware of these contexts, on stage. No actor can be 'objective' because no actor can live outside of ideology. Brecht acknowledges that views, opinions and actions are all dependent on our location in time and space.
Agreed. However my point is that - unlike a Stanislavskian approach, for example - an actor must not be 'hypnotised' to the point of losing his way in the character and losing emphasis on message and theme. Believing that no actor can be truly objective in their process while playing a subjective state is facile.

Thank you. Your lesson made me curious to try some exercises of epic theatre in my theatre group.
Excellent, clear, accessible account of Brechtian techniques.

This is great! So educational.
Thank you!

You are very welcome. Glad it helped.
@@OrganicActing Es el video que hasta ahora muestra más claramente la estética de trabajo de este autor. Me gusta...En qué país te encuentras?
This is so detailed....thanks.
Thanks. Hope it helped!

Fantastic lesson!
Btw...music function in Brecht's theatre is basically similar to all acted/sang musicals
Interesting. I wouldn't have thought all musicals had a political message and motivation to instruct an audience to make change.
@@OrganicActing... As you mentioned, referring to the emotional aspect of the narration sustained by music, not the political applications
Thank you
Hey thank you for the video! Im writing my master thesis about epic theatre and am looking for sources. Could you recommend me a book?
No problem! At thesis level, perhaps try 'Brecht on Theatre' or even 'Collected Plays, Poems, Letters and Journals'.
Thanks!
