Abstract: This paper deals with the concept of voyage, both physical and imaginary, made towards the culture of the Other, considered as a possible solution to the on-going crisis (laconically described as a lack of communication between the public and the performers) in the contemporary Western theatre.The subject at work here is the 1989 nine hours theatre staging of the Indian epic Mahabharata, by Peter Brook, who has decided to rediscover, through this text, the lost knowledge of unity (the wholness of man and his organic relations with the divinity, with the universe, with the worlf of the unseen, with his body) and the lost power of language and signs, capable of inflicting physical and metaphysical changes into the objective reality.These topics are further elaborated: the voyage in India, the power of language and signs, the presence of the invisible, the text of the Other as a question of redefining identity, the preparations and the birth of the theatre production. The conclusion of the paper outlines the idea that the voyage towards the Other becomes the voyage towards the Self, but a Self which, at the end of the artistic experience, finds itself changed, enriched, opened and ready to outrun its own cultural barriers, to live in an universal dimension. Keywords: theatre, Mahbharata, Peter Brook |
