Side of theater. THE LITTLE THIEF

The theater would be written on it that mode of speech? are to believe the French dramatic tradition, from Corneille to Koltès the answer is yes. Yes on every key. Yes to all ages. Yes still often where, for many viewers and critics outside the verb point hello: theater is dialogue, with its discursive strategies, with her beautiful words, good words, deliciously savored. But at some point in the history of French theater, a reversal took place, founder of our modern drama. If at first the raw material of drama was entirely in speech (even what it is, here and there, punctuated by silence), in a second time silence itself became as a frame in which words, rarer and less effective, are inserted, humbly. In Maeterlinck Racine, Diderot to Zola, through Marivaux, a theater history then written into the hollow where it marks envious of the great drama of our time.
