Summary/Abstract: The modern theatrical adaptation aims to engage the audience not through the narrative but through its fragments, allowing individuals to assemble the performance’s entirety in their own consciousness. This approach leads to a multiplicity of interpretations and a richness of readings, as the number of spectators equals the number of interpretations and adaptations, making the viewer an active participant. By participating, the audience brings the present day‘s relevance, thus building a bridge between classical examples and the contemporary. The text becomes a canvas for the spectator’s reflection, a basis for the event called theater, understood in a purely ontological sense as an encounter among people.
