Funded Activity Summary

Ibsen Between Cultures: The Australian Experience. This project offers three benefits to the nation. It will enrich our understanding of the unique development of Australian spoken word drama by comparing research findings on the incorporation of Henrik Ibsen's plays in our dramatic canon with parallel investigations in China, India, and Bangladesh. It will create new knowledge about the way theatrical performances communicate ideas and modes of human expression across national boundaries, thus increasing our understanding of the global transmission of culture. The knowledge gained about intercultural creative production through this project, can be applied both to other areas of industrial production, and to Australian cultural diplomacy.
