| Summary: | An essay from the book "Essays on Twentieth-Century German Drama and Theater: An American Reception 1977-1999" is presented. It focuses on the spatio-temporality aspect of a theatrical performance. A reader or spectator is being transported by a theater experience via time and space and towards meaning. This movement towards meaning is often referred as the process of theatrical signification. It can be said that time and space cannot be considered as two stable elements from which a theater performance is produced. |
