1 To What Does It Answer? Verbatim and Site-specific Playwriting Julia Jarel , 2024 single work criticism
— Appears in: TEXT : Journal of the Australian Association of Writing Programs , vol. 28 no. 1 2024;
'Kershaw and Nicholson ask whether “research in theatre and performance does
anything different than what goes on in other ‘fields’ where humans desire to better
understand why on Earth they are here” (2011, p. 14). This paper responds to this
question by charting the development of a new verbatim and site-specific play, Barbara
York Main: In Her Own Words
and describes the fluid, collective and reflexive
processes inherent in the creation and performance of the work. It suggests that as
creators, actors and audience members interact with and haunt the script, archive and
site, playwriting as research results – not solely in a fixed script or critique, but in a
palimpsest of writing and performance. Finally, this paper asks how the open-ended,
documented assemblage of script/s, data and understandings, arising from playwriting
as research, might be collated and made available for interpretations and imaginings in
new contexts.' (Publication abstract)
