Encenando o processo de paz no teatro contemporâneo da Irlanda do Norte: A obra AH6905 de Dave Duggan

Este ensaio pretende focar a obra de Dave Duggan e da sua compania teatral Sole Purpose Productions, analisando em detalhe a produção da sua nova peça AH6905. As Produções Sole Purpose foram criadas em 1997 pelos directores co-artísticos Dave Duggan e Patricia Byrne com o objectivo de elucidar o público relativamente a questões sociais e públicos através do discurso do imaginário teatral. David Duggan e as Produções Sole Purpose trabalham, de modo consciente, com o intuito de “aplicar a imaginação teatral ao processo político de paz”, seguindo a tradição do “espaço utópico” criada pelos dramaturgos Stewart Parker e Anne Devlin. No entanto, enquanto estes últimos limitam as opções dramatúrgicas empregues nas suas peças à superação do realismo e à tentativa de contornar métodos didácticos, as peças de Duggan rejeitam o realismo a favor de um teatro expressionista brechtiano mais didáctico. A peça AH6905 foca a questão da recuperação da verdade no Processo de Paz da Irlanda do Norte, recorrendo à estrutura dramatúrgica do monólogo. Uma metafóra teatral é utilizada por Dave Duggan para exprimir a sua esperança de que “o povo da Irlanda do Norte se coloque no centro do palco desta questão e no modo de recuperação da verdade nos próximos anos” (Dave Duggan, Foreword to AH6905, p. 5).

Review of the Recommendations of Protecting Our Future: Report of the Working Group on Elder Abuse

Protecting Our Future: Report of the Working Group on Elder Abuse (DOHC, 2002) was a seminal document setting out a framework and programme of work in relation to elder abuse. Prior to Protecting Our Future, the issue of elder abuse had not been explicitly articulated as a priority of health and social policy. The report included recommendations in 13 wide-ranging areas: the link to wider policy; policy on elder abuse; staff structure; legislation; impaired capacity; carers; awareness, education and training; financial abuse; advocacy; implementation; research and education; reporting abuse. It also recommended that progress in implementing Protecting Our Future should be reviewed. Download document here Download Action Plan here
