Summary/Abstract: In one of his words of wit, Albert Einstein said that "Incompetence is the real crisis." The relativity of the word "incompetence" leads us to believe that the interdependence of Einsteinian thought, expressed so simply and concretely, refers to art as well. The crisis is not perceived by man as a phase of transition. For him it means a major change. Usually the crises last for several years and are based on the manipulation of the market that allows the initiator, the conspirator, to dispose at will of the consequences of the plot. Romanian society began to enter into all sorts of collapses: economic, political, educational, cultural. Education, which has a defining role for the individual and for the society, with economic, cultural and social implications, was beginning to fail. There is a great need for a re-dramatization of theatricality in theatre.
