Summary/Abstract: From Text to Staging: Negotiation, Fidelity, Memory. Interview with Patrice Pavis. This interview with Patrice Pavis has been taken after the three day workshop in Târgu Mureș (13-15 Nov. 2019) by the local Institute of Theatre and Multimedia Research of the University of Arts. The general theme being the new forms of performing arts, we continued the dialogue, insisting on some of the main points concerning the often problematic relationship of the stage director to the source text – be it dramatic or not. The discussion focuses on the possible negotiation with this textual source of inspiration, on the question of fidelity, on the different layers of the artistic and historical memory that have to be taken into account when analysing a new stage adaptation.
