Love it or Hate it! Controversies in Museum Theatre
The International Museum Theatre Alliance - Europe invite you to participate
in a seminar hosted by Historic Royal Palaces
On Tuesday 13th July 2010, 10.00 - 16.00
At Kensington Palace, London
Is museum theatre the Œmarmite¹ of interpretation? Do the interpretative
merits of an approach outweigh the fact that some visitors won¹t like it?
Can they be won over? How can a site decide whether to play safe or
innovate?
We bring together a diverse range of top museum theatre practitioners who
have created work at sites including Kensington Palace, Hampton Court and
The Tower of London
€ WildWorks (www.wildworks.biz)
€ Goat & Monkey (www.goatandmonkey.co.uk)
€ Spectrum Drama (www.spectrumdrama.com)
€ Past Pleasures (www.pastpleasures.co.uk)
Each will present case studies, share their experiences of visitor reactions
and argue the pros and cons of different approaches.
The seminar includes a visit to the innovative ŒEnchanted Palace¹ experience
which combines fashion, performance, and dazzling spectacle, inspired by the
stories of the palace¹s former royal residents, to reveal Kensington's
State Apartments in a magical new light.
Delegate fee - £60 for IMTAL members, £75 for non-members.
The delegate fee includes seminar, admission charges, lunch and
refreshments.
All bookings should be received by July 1st 2010.
Payment may be made by cheque, BACS or invoiced on receipt of a purchase
order number.
