Teatrul lui Carmelo Bene. Text scenic și abordări muzicale
Carmelo Bene's theatre. Stage text and musical approaches

Summary/Abstract: A nonconformist stage language, artaudian consequences, maneuvers on the concept of „total art”, technical and philosophical interferences which regard a new approach on acting (la machina attoriale, phoné, teatro senza spettacolo, etc.) are the vital features of the Italian theatrical art created by Carmelo Bene towards the end of the 60ties, which will develop more and more in the 70ties and 80ties. The performance created by Bene is a hybrid product, from the influences of happening and performance art, with techniques oriented toward the breakage of any type of coherence or fixed point of reference through which the performance could be „red”. Bene puts in practice an harmonic, polyphonic and counterpoint structure through which he „organizes” the theatrical levels, from image, actor, sound, involving the timbre, until the sound „is emptied” by meaning.
