THE THEATER IN URBAN SPACE. THE TENDENCIES OF THE DRAMATIC SHOW AT THE BEGINNING OF THE NEW CENTURY

Summary/Abstract: The main idea pursued and demonstrated by this survey is the perpetual necessity to redefine the theater performances and theater spaces, as to achieve the proliferation of this kind of art in the future. Current tendency of permanent modeling theatrical shows for maintaining and increasing public interest, require thorough study of the past, the factors which have caused dramatic changes in both the interpretation and the configuration of the acting scenes, for outlining potential evolution options of theatrical buildings architecture. As a consequence of the general evolution we are assisting today in shifting philosophical attitudes, as well as accepting the idea of continuous change, the study of border areas, relative truths of a new attitude in terms of values (acceptance of values coming from different cultures, re-discussion of human needs) and re-turning attention to the people, by the beneficiary or user of theater designing. Architecture tends toward solving communities’ and collectivities’ issues, accepting cultural differences and tastes, emphasizing the importance of human emotions and perceptions. There is already a large number of outstanding achievements in the spectacle field that amaze by boldness, performance and the way they responded to functional requirements as well as aesthetic; I selected a part from an extensive bibliography, in which the theatre representation conquer the urban space and some examples are presented and analyzed in the work at hand.
