ABSTRACT
The theatre is a place we visit in order to have a ‘vision’—to see how something is or how it was or indeed how it might be. The theatre is able to condense a story in time, space and action in order that we can take it in as a piece; it also expands the story so that we have a new perception or understanding. The theatre, through spectacle, helps us to understand who we are and where we are in the world.
