I agree that Icke uses video to better dramatic effect than van Hove. The use he made of it in 1984 was chilling. But I doubt Icke learned it from van Hove or van Hove came to use video tracking before any other number of stage directors.
I saw ORESTEIA with Williams and I preferred both Icke's Armory HAMLET and his London 1984 but I remember being perhaps too tired to give his ORESTEIA a fair hearing. My take on it then was it was an attempt to bring a contemporary audience into the power of myth by de-mythologizing the mythic which I suppose is a kind of mythophobia. |
