Packet 6: Bonus 3

In a Polish Laboratory Theatre production of Stanisław Wyspiański’s (“stan-EES-wav viz-SPYAN-skeez”) play Akropolis, actors slowly built a concentration camp crematorium around this kind of group. For 10 points each:
[10e] What kind of group is separated from dramatic action by a metaphorical “fourth wall”?
ANSWER: audiences [or spectators; or viewers]
[10h] This Polish theater director emphasized the connection between actor and audience in the treatise Towards a Poor Theatre. An account of one of this director’s paratheatrical “beehives” appears in My Dinner With Andre.
ANSWER: Jerzy Grotowski (“graw-TOV-skee”)
[10m] In Grotowski’s poor theater, the actor “reveals” themselves to the spectator in an act described by this word. The 1849 essays “Art and Revolution” and “The Artwork of the Future” use this adjective to describe the fusion of acting, dance, and music present in Greek drama.
ANSWER: total [accept total act or akt całkowity; accept Gesamtkunstwerk or total work of art; accept general or ideal or universal] (“Art and Revolution” and “The Artwork of the Future” is by Richard Wagner.)
