Abstract

In this article, we discuss theater productions we mounted in the Marshall Islands as a case example of how the theatrical process, shaped by “polycultural” inclinations, contributes to the personal development of youth in the Marshall Islands. We contextualize and detail a unique theatrical process that has potential for fostering youths’ personal and collective competencies in a troubled context. By taking on another character, the youth actors extend their perceptions of who they are and what they are capable of and, in the process, they reinterpret the text that is their own life.

“不要害怕，岛上到处都是噪音”：通过马绍尔群岛的莎士比亚和音乐作品扩大青年的抱负

摘要

在这篇文章中，我们讨论了我们在马绍尔群岛制作的戏剧作品，作为一个案例，说明由“多元文化”倾向塑造的戏剧过程如何促进马绍尔群岛青年的个人发展。我们将一个独特的戏剧过程背景化并详细说明，该过程有可能在困难的背景下培养青年的个人和集体能力。通过扮演另一个角色，青年演员扩展了他们对自己是谁以及他们的能力的看法，并在此过程中，他们重新诠释了他们自己的生活文本。
