Jean Deschamps et Shakespeare : une aventure théâtrale en Occitanie

A pioneering approach to cultural heritage preservation and tourism, exemplified by Jean Deschamps' integration of Shakespearean themes into the redevelopment of UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Carcassonne. This study reveals how Deschamps' 'théâtre in situ' model, combining dramatic performance with historical site restoration, reshaped Occitanie's cultural landscape post-WWII. Leveraging previously untapped archival materials from the Fonds Jean Deschamps, the research demonstrates the enduring impact of this strategy on both artistic creation and smart tourism. An innovative smartphone-based immersive game, developed in collaboration with a local startup, further illustrates the potential for digital tools to revive traditional cultural practices in modern contexts.
