Short description of contents:
This paper investigates the utilisation of digital storytelling in theatre, specifically
focusing on its application in staging and adapting Shakespearean plays. By examining
the definitions of digital storytelling and lecture performance, the paper explores how
an autobiographical approach present in both these genres, can be relevant in today’s
educational contexts and remediation of Shakespeare’s works through digitally
mediated narratives. The analysis of a lecture performance called Gamlet (a Russian
name for Hamlet), that incorporates elements of digital storytelling, illustrates their
various applications in theatre. Furthermore, the paper presents arguments that can
serve as guiding principles for future student work in this field that might enhance
the critical abilities and enrich the sense of self of these students, as it constitutes an
educational model that goes against the commodification of knowledge.
