Do things in theatre happen for real? Are events in theatre real? Does theatre lie? What\u2019s the difference between \u201cfor real\u201d\/\u201ctruly\u201d and \u201ctruth\u201d in theatre? Questions whose answers we supposedly know \u2013 in theatre, things aren\u2019t \u201cas in life\u201d. And yet, theatre is life. Theatre is a place of miracles. Theatre is a place where we have the chance to experience life as another. Theatre and Truth sets out to explore the possibilities these questions open up to us. To discover how theatre both is and isn\u2019t for real, and how this isn\u2019t a lie.<\/p>\n
In this book, lovers and scholars of acting, directing, theatre theory and history will also find analyses of problems such as Brecht\u2019s alienation effect, the natural in Stanislavski\u2019s ideology, possibility in Artaud\u2019s texts, Meyerhold\u2019s biomechanics, how theatre is play according to Schechner, why roles are spectres according to Coquelin, and why the actor can do anything. Concepts such as \u201creality\u201d, \u201cacting\u201d, and \u201cillusion\u201d are examined in light of the theses of philosophers who are key to understanding theatre theory, such as Diderot, Lessing, Goethe, Hegel, Schiller, and Schelling. Special attention is paid to phenomena such as \u201crealistic theatre\u201d, \u201cconditional theatre\u201d and \u201cpolitical theatre\u201d, to contemporary theory and practice in the field of theatre, as well as to the specific case of \u201cperformance\u201d.<\/p>\n
