| Résumé : | Two contemporary productions representing the visit of French theatrical visionary Antonin Artaud to Ireland in 1937 are the subject of this paper. One production charted, in a linear fashion, Artaud's journey through Ireland to his delusional state of mind at the time. The second used his epistolary narrative of the events in Ireland as a soundtrack exotic creature forever trapped in both our collective memory and our imagination, haunting and disturbing us. While one re-enacted Artaud's time in Ireland as a performative intervention, the other actually staged the essence of his interventions by disrupting our very notion and experience of performance itself |
