Abstract
Abstract:In this article I discuss the current Covid-19 crisis in relation to an intensified reflection about the future of theatre. The argument proceeds via a review of crisis theory to a discussion of recent research into futurity, especially the idea of prospection. Specifically, I shall examine the interrelationship between crisis and prognosis as it pertains to theatre and the performing arts. Material is drawn from a database currently being assembled within the framework of the research project "Krisengefüge der Künste" which is collating public discourse on how the pandemic is affecting the performing arts. A comparison is made between discourses in the UK and Germany which leads to some final reflections on how such discussions may impact on the institutional legitimacy of publicly funded theatre.
摘要：在这篇文章中，我讨论了当前新冠肺炎危机与对戏剧未来的强化反思。这场争论通过对危机理论的回顾，进而讨论了最近对未来性的研究，尤其是前瞻性的想法。具体而言，我将研究危机与预后之间的相互关系，因为它与戏剧和表演艺术有关。材料来自一个目前正在研究项目“Krisengefüge der Künste”框架内汇编的数据库，该项目正在整理关于疫情如何影响表演艺术的公共话语。对英国和德国的话语进行了比较，最终反思了这些讨论如何影响公共资助剧院的制度合法性。
