Description
Summary:The following article comparatively analyzes the theatrical theories of Erwin Piscator (Das politische Theater, 1968) and César Vallejo (El arte y la revolución, 1973) and their practical applications. It also attempts to locate César Vallejo’s theater within the parameters of political theater. Piscator, Vallejo and other authors of revolutionary drama present an ideological and aesthetic model in which the “new” proletarian aesthetics overcomes that of the bourgeoisie. This aesthetics lie in the utilization of the cinematograph, the interpretative techniques of collective characters, and the use of documentation from a proletariat perspective.
