Title:  Contemporary theatre in France: mise en scène and beyond. The case of adaptation.

The lecture looks at recent theatre productions in France and examines what has been the role of the director for the mise en scène. Examples of productions (among them productions adapting texts or material or other arts) are used in order to clarify the different between mise en scène and performance and to give an overview of a few trends of contemporary theatre.
