Abstrakt
This thesis is a scenographic and sociological research, by taking reference from Allen Ginsberg’s Howl as well as Beat Generation, it covers the topics of eclectic religious undertone found in the literature of the Beatniks and how was this religious aspects were providing the sense of community, new consciousness and identity for the misfits in the counterculture. Second part, to be able to find a correlation between the “Howl” and the non-conforming poetic quality of it, non traditional theatre types are covered. Third part of the thesis is visual outputs from reimagining the poem as an immersive theater experience by sticking to interpretation of the text under the topics of religion&madness.
