Questions

vtheatre.net? "Virtual Theatre"?

I use "virtual" not only in technological sense -- more as a philosophy.

The world enter the 3rd millenium and theatre has to go through another transformation. Even the "postmodern" views could not work anymore. I prefer what Michail Epstein calls "transcultural" -- I myself is a product of this process. I do not belong to any particular culture, but is there some "Anatolian culture"?

In the past we called it "individual" or "personality" -- in the era of Theatre of One it became a fundamental principle. The extreme existentialism?

I stare at the name of the new domain anatoly.vtheatre.net and I have another thought about our celebrity culture. "Famous for 15 minutes" -- what a new image for our mortality!

"Into to MY Theatre"?

The drama, comedy and tragedy of one's presence...

Look up on a good clear night. The dark sky is full of stars, but this is an illusion that they are close to each other. The reality is rather opposite... This is a symbol of our new human universe. Should I still call it "human"?

Notes

I do not know how you can use my pages. I do not know even if you can use them at all. Do I use them?

Theatre w/Anatoly Intro

2005: I have to talk about the future...
After two years of being "under construction" the website looks like "that old house" which needs that constant repare.

If you can't find whatever you are looking for, check the Guide or FAQ pages.

Most of my pages are built for classes I teach and shows I direct. Basically, this is a tool to save time in classroom and during the rehearsals, when I can send students to the pages, istead of talking about it. The homework.

There are some research pages, so you can see where I come from.

I try to put some graphics (mostly for easy navigation), but this is an additional web-work and secondary (I do it only when I have time).

In many way it is a data-storage and you have to find the information like in Wall-Mart -- by yourself.

Comments, suggestions, recommendations are always welcome!

...
Folks, this is my first directory; since 1998 many pages became directories and right now the files in "Theatre w/Anatoly" should be treated as gateway pages.

TheGlobe went out off business in Aug. 2001 and "Theatre with Anatoly" files are relocated to GeoAlaska and Film-North. To clean up the dead links to theGlobe will take some time. If you see it, please, report. Thanks.

Get on my mailing list, if you want to stay updated!

Or subscribe to more specific forum, according to your interests.


A few words about navigation and the road signs. (I keep working on it!)

The banners and logos you see on my pages:

Oh, yeah! Virtual Theatre! Several symbols, depending of what aspect of VT is in focus -- stage, film, web and etc.

Questions? Go to FAQ page!

Let me repeat myself (from Film600 and script.vtheatre.net):

Where teaching and studying (research) meet --

Theme-thought, according to different playwrights (Shakespeare, Ibsen, Strindberg, Chekhov and so on) and directors (Fillini, Kurosawa, Tarkovsky, Bergman pages).

Connections with other themes (list): family, gender and sex...

Finally, my own practical investigations: shows.vtheatre.net (only recently I began to make themes pages, Don Juan 2003, for example).

And the nonfiction (writing), of course: HIM, Father-Russia, PostAmeriKa, Self, POV, Tech (gatepages are in WRITE directory).

Yeah, yeah, there is more -- "philo" pages, metaphysics: in theatre theory directory, for instance (topics-bar: space, time and etc.)
Plus, Virtual Theatre and Book of Spectator!

Web? Oh, this is just medium. Like stage, screen, writing...
