Summary/Abstract: Managing to vest the staging of a dramatic work with its entire power of suggestion (emphasized through means specific to theatrical art) may be regarded as a success. The work of art, as an expression of an ideal, cannot lack the imagination of the artist, nor his creativity. Contemporary theatrical art avoids just a commonplace duplication of reality; it rather tends to be a creative and subjective staging of a major theme that the artist wishes to share with the audience. A valuable show is the sum of creativity, sensibility and wit appended by its makers. The idea, the emotion, the message of a dramatic work must ensure the success of its reception through the transposition of the author's intention in a stage formula that is full of creativity, yet clear and coherent. The most important step in creation is the transposition of intuitive projection on the character meant to achieve scenic excellence, including research, discovery, undertaking various forms of expression. Every kind of theatrical performer has a unique arsenal of means of expression which ensures an honest or resounding success. Every generation of show creators (actors, directors, stage designers) strive for perfection, renewal, overcoming traditionalism, finding new forms of theatrical expression, exploiting unconventional stage venues etc. The goal: professional success. Educating the audience, building an aesthetical taste, especially in young spectators, constitutes a major success, a long-term investment meant to maintain the untainted spirit of a people endowed, most of all, with creativity.
