Brecht and Artaud
Brecht’s technique focuses on breaking the fourth wall. He talks about the little things you can add to a play. How the narrator changes the relationship between the play in the audience. Other one is the use of songs and music. Songs and music affect the mood and view of the moment. Also the importance of signs and technology for the audience’s aspect. Signs can focus the audience's attention on them. Using technology could help cause a scene to be more thought out. freeze frames can also add to the scene. Being frozen in time can really bring the audience to notice an unnatural moment in time.
Artaud forces on the visual poetry. Visual poetry such as dance, movement, gestures, technology aspects and music. He believes his plays should be like a dream. he likes symbolic items, traditional interesting costumes, ritual masks with technology. Also he thinks shocking the audience can really pull the audience into the show mentally. He believes the play should be happening around the audience. He likes when they find a way to interact with the audience. He wants actors with very good skills and they can truly embrace their true character in the play. He wants people to use more action and violence to draw the audience in.
