post-dramatic theatre

Post-dramatic theatre is a form of performance that moves beyond traditional narrative and character development found in classical drama. It emphasizes the experience of the audience, often prioritizing visual and sensory elements over a coherent story. This style can include fragmented structures, multimedia elements, and interaction between performers and spectators. It challenges conventional notions of what theatre should be, focusing on themes, emotions, and the presence of the performers rather than delivering a linear plot. Post-dramatic theatre invites viewers to interpret and engage with the work in a more abstract and personal way.
