ENNOE IZMERENIE BUMAZHNOJ VOLSHEBNOJ SHKATULKI, ILI KAK STAVIT' PRIGOVSKIJ TEATR
The article traces the role of dramatic texts in the literary and artistic works of Dmitry Alexandrovich Prigov, and also analyzes the reasons for the nonembodiment of these works by specific theatre productions. It is established that there is a close connection between Prigov’s vision of the theater space and his ‘phantom’ installations, between the general performative project “DAP - a living classic” and the presence in the plays of a number of authorial hypostases. As a result, a set of techniques is described (chaotic polyphony, mingling with side note remarks, involving the public in action), defining a separate casket semiotic space in which the plot, logic, identity are strained to the limit and decompose in their very essence, which leads to the collapse of the space through which, by the power of the theatrical word and the performative beginning, a new not only aesthetic, but also physical dimension is being revived: transcendence is saturated with an amazing “scenic” palpability. Having highlighted the above theoretical prerequisites, possible ways and strategies are proposed for their specific application in theatrical performances.
