Play is Play: Theatrical Illusion in Chinese Wall by Frisch and Other 'Epic' plays by Brecht, Wilder, Hazleton, and Li


Overview

The term ""epic"" minimizes the nature of certain plays. This text examines the idea of ""epic"" plays and looks at the influence some of these plays have had on contemporary world theatre. The author discusses the idea that four ""epic"" playwrights, Brecht, Wilder, Hazelton, and Li, are not strictly ""epic"" but are also theatrical, due to the involvment of spectators.
