Evoking sympathy from the audience

Creating sterotypical characters

One actor playing several characters (multi-roling)

Speaking directly to the audience

He wanted people to use their intellect

To annoy Stanislavski

To make money

Because no other theatre existed

Making people happy

Creating an emotional distancing so an audience thinks about what is happening

Creating a realistic character so the audience feel empathy

Good acting

Making the audience feel awkward and confused

Creating drama that includes aliens

An audience will connect to the play using their intellect instead of their emotions

Making an audience cry with sympathy for a character

Still Image

Emotion memory

Song

Speaking in third person

Rolling across the stage multiple times

When a female and male actor play the same role

When all of the actors speak multiple times

When an actor plays more than one character onstage

Verfremdung

Episodic structure

Political themes

Gestus

Actor would sit with the audience

A narrator

Symbolic props

Actors would come out of character on stage

Costume, set and props would resemble real life

The destroying of any illusion that you are watching real life and making the audience think objectively

The structural reshaping of the performance area in a theatre

Giving the audience the feeling that they're actually in the same room as the actors

Epic theatre deals with myths and legends while Dramatic theatre is about sad endings

Epic theatre leaves the audience with questions and challenges while Dramatic theatre has a plot that reaches a conclusion

Epic theatre is large scale and Dramatic theatre is emotional
