Explanation:
At this edge of the early 21st century, we would call this a traditional theatre experience. It is familiar, not one of those experimental, avant garde productions. It’s what we expect from our theater. Hasn’t it always been like this?
It hasn’t. This experience that we call theater is still relatively new. It is only about a hundred years old. Shakespeare would cry “foul and most unnatural murder” if he were to see it. Or, at the least find this new theater a novelty unlike what he did. Sophocles, Moliere and all of the great actors of the 19th century would have the same response. The theatre we call traditional is wildly divergent from what came before.
It could be said that theatre changed to reflect it’s time. It became a more realistic and psychologically connected experience. And yet, we lost some vital aspects of theatre in the translation. I believe for theatre to meet the requirements of expressing what it is to live in the 21st Century and to remain vital, we need to go back and reclaim some of what made theatre theatre before the turn of the last century.
