  • The Nameless Star or Chekhov's "Moscow"

    Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2025

    This article focuses on Mihail Sebastian's play The Nameless Star, staged at the ”Elvira Godeanu” Drama Theater in Târgu Jiu, and offers a reflection on suspended time and human fragility, in a subtle encounter between the worlds of Mihail Sebastian and Chekhov. Marin Miroiu, like Chekhov's characters, lives in a reality weighed down by routine, finding refuge in astronomy, a space where ideals can breathe. Mona's appearance disturbs this stagnan…

  • The metaphor of kitsch in Caragiale's work. A Stormy Night & Company at "Tudor Vianu" Theatre Giurgiu

    Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2024

    Kitsch, this aesthetic category developed in the second half of the 20th century, was one of Caragiale's points of interest, describing through it the shabby and ambitious world of a state that wanted at all costs to align itself with its Western European models. Surprised in various forms, kitsch can be found in the substratum of Caragiale's literature, underlined scenically by the performance of A Stormy Night & Company at the ”Tudor Vianu” The…

  • Behind the Brain - Epilepsy.Narrative Perspectives

    Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2023

    This article, essentially a book review combined with a rehearsal journal, is focused on a project that brings to the forefront a current and yet under-publicised topic within Romania. The production Stai jos sau cazi / Sit Down or You'll Fall by Bogdan Munteanu, along with the accompanying volume "Culisele creierului – Epilepsia. Narrative Perspectives,"forms a diptych. In this, a theatrically oriented cultural work is spotlighted concurrently w…

  • The Merry Widow 2.0. Andrei Șerban

    Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2023

    "Review the show or the article `Merry Widow 2.0. Andrei Șerban` traces the journey of bringing an operetta completed and premiered in 1905 up to date. Adapting and relating a musical composition to contemporary reality is an arduous process that requires rigorous probing into the depths of the libretto, the spoken text and the music to bring out their universality and relevance. By following the two versions made by director Andrei Șerban in Rom…

  • The Opera Libretto – Adaptation of A Canonical Literary Text, The Opera O Noapte furtunoasă by Paul Constantinescu

    Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2022

    The opera libretto, born very often through the adaptation of large texts, is the foundation of an opera composition. What interests us is how it can independently support musicaly a story, while also preserving its quality as a literary text. On the other hand, we raise the question whether the libretto should work in the absence of the integrative, complementary background, which defines, in fact, the genre of opera - music. The first part of t…

  • Claus Guth and The Inverted Dioramas

    Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2022

    This article focuses on the directorial aesthetics of Claus Guth, an artist that specialises in reinterpreting the lyric creations of the great opera houses worldwide. Disengaging or maybe understanding hidden meanings of the librettos and musical scores, speculating and reinventing the characters’ stories, the German director gives birth to new realities which mold to the original ones, transfiguring them in unexpected ways. The Messiah oratory …

  • Isabelle – The Last Princess of Maurice Maeterlinck

    Open Access•Cristi AVRAM•ARTICLE•Theatrical Colloquia•2020

    Maurice Maeterlinck, the author of some of the plays associated with the symbolist aesthetic, in which the character is often an unseen presence associated to destiny or death, writes in the first part of his career a collection of dramas in which the heroines seem to appear each time under different guises. At the end of his career, Maeterlinck returns to the mysterious universe proposed in his first text – The Princess Maleine , finishing the c…
