"Sing, something might happen": about the songs and the act of singing in the research of the Workcenter of Jerzy Grotowski and Thomas Richards

ABSTRACT

This text explores, in the work of the Workcenter of Jerzy Grotowski and Thomas Richards, traditional songs-based practices, on he basis ot the powerful relationship between crafts (ways of doing) and modes of existence (or subjectivation). It also discusses the relationship between tradition and research. A question arises from these relationships about what experiences and skills - in the words of Grotowski, Richards and Biagini - are related to these songs and to the act of singing them. Finally, the text discusses the function of the songs and the place of the singer.
