Abstrakt

Panic! (How to Be Happy!), sztuka z 2003 roku napisana, wyreżyserowana i zaprojektowana przez Richarda Foremana, bada możliwości odrzucenia konwencjonalnych ograniczeń narzucanych przez ciała bohaterów, jaki i samą strukturę sceny teatralnej. Niniejszy artykuł proponuje zastosowanie nowego paradygmatu do ponownego odczytania tego utworu, w wyniku czego nie zostaje on określony jako sztuka typowo awangardowa lub surrealistyczna, a raczej jako nowe zjawisko na scenie dramatycznej, czyli sztuka (neo)barokowa.

Słowa kluczowe:

(neo)barok, teatr amerykański, Richard Foreman, Off-Off Broadway, gabinet osobliwości, teoria śmieci
