Arthur and Clementine , Cinema -Theatre of objects (Subtitles in English)

Staging From the outset, at Titiritrán Theatre Company we have been interested in a dialogue between new technologies and traditional techniques on the technical and meaning levels. With “Arthur and Clementine”, we want to explore the relationship between traditional theater of objects and its animation techniques, and film animation with its own rich language. A modified light table, used in the early days of film animation and then as the platform for Sand Art, becomes our shadow animation device and at the same time a large frame for the live sequences. The author Adela Turin, writer and historian of Italian art, wrote a series of books called “In favour of girls” which became a reference for coeducation and equality. The message of these books is as valid and necessary now as it was then. The main aim of Adela Turin's tales was to create a better, more equal world free of sexist stereotypes and discrimination. "Arthur and Clementine" is perhaps one of her best-known tales worldwide. A story for equality Arthur and Clementine are two tortoises who fall in love and decide to set up house together. Clementine is gay, lively and full of dreams and Arthur manfully shoulders what he believes is his duty to provide and decide what is best for her. But each has a very different outlook. Whilst Clementine wants to experience art and life by being creative, Arthur thinks that only conventional culture has any value and laughs condescendingly at his wife's “ingenuousness” in wanting to try out different artistic activities. Clementine becomes more and more weighed down by her partner's prejudices and insecurities, until she is completely imprisoned by them. When Clementine finally flees this suffocating over-protection, Arthur cannot understand why she has rejected all his efforts to give her a life of luxury full of expensive gifts. The music The score for Arthur and Clementine aims to be music which an audience of children can connect with, but that does not mean it foregoes either classical or modern references or solid consistency and structure. So it is easy to see how the Venetian barcarole, obviously inspired by Mendelssohn, will develop into the music which frees Clementine from her internal prison, or how Clementine's theme itself begins life timidly as a nebulous modal form which eventually develops into a rapturous Chopin nocturne. The playful theme of the hide-and-seek scene, apparently innocent, becomes an obsessive slab, as heavy as the objects Arthur keeps loading onto Clementine's shell. Poor Clementine! Right from the beginning, a peculiar disharmony was trying to warn her that something was not quite right… Sometimes impressionist, sometimes minimalist and sometimes romantic, the music slips through the pianist's fingers like the sand through the actors' fingers, ceaselessly transforming and recycling itself, underlining and describing the scenes in order to give emotional power to the story and encouraging the audience to empathise with Clementine in the way she so clearly deserves.
