THEATRICAL PHYSICS: WHAT MIGHT IT BE?

Abstract

The project aims to find the links between theatre and physics and to gather response around the idea of ”theatrical physics” – what might it be? My project circles around the possibility of connecting physics and theatre in order to understand the basic nature of what theatre is and perhaps to expand the idea of what theatre might be. The text has the structure of a travel log, a journey journal, that takes the reader on an expedition through my process of exploring this theme. I wanted to give the text a performative character. It describes, but also stages my expedition, through language.
