Summary: | Over the last forty years or so, we have seen extraordinary theatrical metamorphoses which have boldly shaken up and overturned the traditions of dramatic art. Surely it is no wonder audiences may sometimes feel lost when faced with so many divergent models? What do audiences actually see? Is it still theatre? A theatrical event may become a subject of discussion because it divides audiences and critical opinion. One side may attack the director for killing art while the other acclaims art’s regeneration. Over a century ago, Zola had this advice for artists: “Every time someone wants to confine you to a code by saying: this is theatre, this is not theatre, reply outright: ‘theatre [as such] does not exist. There are theatres and I’m looking for mine’”. |
