1	Överhölö folkets hus / Överhölö community hall Larsson, Martin January 2021 (has links) En kort promenad eller cykeltur från Hölö ligger det nya folkets hus för Hölöborna och folket på den omgivande landsbygden. I hundratals år har platsen varit en mötesplats för invånarna i området. Den resta kyrkoruinen och det nya folkets hus förstärker varandra, platsen och skapar nya rum både inne och ute. I källaren i ena änden av det avlånga folkets hus ligger ett mejeri som hämtar sin mjölk ett stenkast bort. I Restaurangen ovanför kan man avnjuta dess produkter och andra hyperlokala råvaror. I den stora salen som sträcker sig genom nästan hela byggnaden finns fristående mindre rum som skapar en stor mängd, både öppna och stängda rum där man kan plugga, jobba, gå en matlagningskurs, hänga med kompisar, ha utställningar och annat som husets användare önskar. I andra änden av byggnaden finns en aula vars lutning naturligt följer landskapet. Här finns den enda biografen på flera mils avstånd och man kan hyra denna för större möten eller föreläsningar. Den del av huset som är över mark är helt i trä och byggnaden är designad för att vara hållbar, långsiktig och enkel att ändra så att den kan stå på platsen lika länge som den gamla kyrkan gjort. / A short walk or bike ride to the north west of Hölö lies the new community hall for the people of Hölö and its surroundings. For hundreds of years the place has been a gathering spot for those who live in the area. The raised church ruin and the new community building amplifies each other, enhances the place and creates new spaces both inside and outside. In the cellar at one end of the oblong building, milk from a nearby farm is processed, and in the restaurant you can enjoy its products and other hyperlocal produce. In the main hall of the building multiple rooms create different open and closed-off spaces for studying, working, cooking-classes, hanging out with friends, exhibitions and whatever its users need. At the other end of the building is an assembly hall that follows the natural slope. Here lies the only cinema of the nearby vicinity and it can be used for bigger meetings, talks and lectures. The over-earth part of the building is made completely of wood and the whole building is designed to be sustainable, lasting and easy to change so it can stand there as long as the church has.

2	Actor Alone: Solo Performance in New Zealand Parker, George January 2008 (has links) This thesis explores solo performance in New Zealand. That solo performance has been widely used in New Zealand's relatively brief theatre history is usually ascribed to the economy, manoeuvrability and adaptability of the form - common reasons for the popularity of solo performance elsewhere as well. But this thesis considers solo performance as a kind of theatre that has been suited to New Zealand in a distinctive way. In particular, I argue that solo performance has emerged on the margins of mainstream theatre in New Zealand as a means of actively engaging with a sense of isolation that typifies the post-colonial New Zealand experience. The ability of the solo performance to move between remote rural settlements and urban centres has connected these New Zealand communities in a way that is unusual for theatre in New Zealand. Furthermore, a solo performer speaking directly to an audience about the experience of living in New Zealand allows for an intimate interaction with a traditionally stoic and laconic masculine society. In this thesis, I make a case for three solo performances where it is possible to see, in the representation of a search for what it means to be a New Zealander, a theatrical contribution to nation-building: The End of the Golden Weather (1959), Coaltown Blues (1984) and Michael James Manaia (1991). However, in a subsequent chapter, I look at solo performances in New Zealand that might better be understood within global movements such as feminism and multiculturalism. I argue that this shift has depleted the power that the form once held to comment upon New Zealand identity and to assist in the search for national identity. I conclude the thesis by considering how ongoing theatre practice may be informed by the experience of solo performance in New Zealand. solo performance theatre New Zealand theatre Bruce Mason Mervyn Thompson Jim Moriarty John Broughton The End of the Golden Weather Coaltown Blues Michael James Manaia The Case of Katherine Mansfield Cathy Downes A Long Undressing Michael Parmenter The Ballad of Jimmy Costello Tim Balme Krishnan's Dairy Jacob Rajan Ka Shue Lynda Chanwai-Earle Hatch or the Plight of the Penguins Geoff Chapple Stuart Devenie Colin McColl man alone performance solo community hall marae Free Theatre Ella Herbert Achternbusch actor alone
