Rogue Artists Ensemble is a theater company based in Los Angeles, California that specializes in “Hyper-theatrical” performance. According to the mission statement on the company’s official website:
Hallmarks of Rogue Artists shows include mask work, puppetry, and digital projection. Many Rogue Artists shows are adapted from existing works, but the final scripts are always written in-house via a collaborative process. Although most Rogue Artists shows tend to employ adult themes, the group also runs a children’s program with workshops and performances for those too young to attend regular Rogue performances. == History == Rogue Artists Ensemble was founded in 2001 by students at the University of California, Irvine. Their first three shows, "Hyperbole," "The Poe Play" (based on the stories of Edgar Allan Poe), and "Pip" (based on the novel ''Great Expectations'' by Charles Dickens) were performed on campus. In 2003, the group became a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) company and began performing independently of the members’ alma mater. Subsequent shows were performed in small venues around Los Angeles and Orange County, California. In 2006, and again in 2008, the Rogues received a grant from the Jim Henson Foundation to produce an adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean’s “The Tragical Comedy or Comical Tragedy of Mr. Punch.”〔(The Jim Henson Foundation )〕 In 2009 the Rogues created an original adaptation of three shorts stories by Nikolai Gogol- "The Overcoat", "The Nose", and "Diary of a Madman"- entitled ''Gogol Project''. The play was written by Kitty Felde with original music and songs by Ego Plum.〔http://www.rogueartists.org/gogol〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rogue Artists Ensemble」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
