Analyzing the most famous and discussed theatrical performances from the last century, as well as from this century, we get to the conclusion that in most cases their success was caused by using ritualistic elements in the directing process. Some of the most famous theatrical creators included in their theatrical practice increased interest in the ritual in the theatre and their theory gave specifi c attention to the effi cacy of the ritualistic elements. Th e interest of these creators in the ritual and its elements is manifested because of several reasons. Firstly, all the aspects or common features between the theatre and the ritual are obvious, secondly, some of them expressed deep interest in ancient Greek dramaturgy-which through its thematic implies a call to the ritual. However, a common cause that unites everyone who has used the ritual or its elements is the desire to create an atmosphere with a new charge, an energetic, ritualistic atmosphere, that will be able to bring the viewer to a new dimension, totally diff erent from the classic perception of a performance.
