Kelly Schacht
And then we changed the screenplay
“Where were you last night?” “I was sleeping.” “What were you thinking about, honey?” “Me too.”
The work of Kelly Schacht (B) brings everyday experiences to the theatre in
order to expose underlying structures.
And then we changed the screenplay is inspired by the
creative process preceding a performance, a process in which the actors
take ownership of a text or a script through play and repetition. Schacht
has written open dialogues that can be combined in different ways.
Questions and answers run across the screen of the STUK film theatre like
an autocue for the actors present who are practising their part. Their live
performance constructs an open story which constantly shifts and looks for
interaction, like a kind of Cluedo that leaves the audience to put together
the plot.
