Experimental Theatre, beginning in the late 19th century was a general term for movements in western theatre. It was new, different and exciting with no rules and drawbacks. Experimental theatre is a way in which you can break the fourth wall with the audience- pushing the boundaries of theatre and entering a new era of theatre. Experimental theatre alters the traditional conventions of:
-space
- movement
-tension
-language
-symbolism
-as well as others.
Our goal by the end of the term is to fully explore experimental theatre and create a performance that will leave the audience shocked and uncomfortable. Also quite possibly making them feel isolated and insecure or on the other hand, explore giving the audience too much power and seeing how they react. This will be different to any performance we have done before and I am quite excited for the term ahead.
