Abstract
This Academic Exercise seeks to investigate the processes involved in the adaptation of literary material for a different medium, the stage. The work will focus on determining the various process methodologies employed for adaptation and the concepts inherent when translation occurs across differing semiotic systems. I will endeavour to determine the core components that underpin the various methods in order to chart the challenges faced by adapters of fiction. The theoretical investigation will culminate in a performance research showing. This will be a collaborative process in which theatrical methodologies will be successfully modified to best ensure that the adaptation process is a meaningful one.
