De dramaturgie van de ongehoorzaamheid: Historisch vormingstheater en politieke theatraliteit vandaag

In the 1970s, a form of political theater with the stated intention of educating its audience in an anti-capitalist sense reached a certain height. Today, there is a revival of political theater and theatricality, but with a different, less moralistic, form and content. This article explores the differences between the (meta)discourse – in theater studies and performance studies – about both genres, around concepts such as totality, representativeness, spectatorship and audience.
