Note | Luigi Pirandello wrote symbolic dramas and satires with radical innovations and departures from conventional theatrical techniques, thereby sparking controversies. This intellectual comedy is "a drama within a drama", wherein six characters gatecrash a rehearsal, demanding 'lines' for their unfinished stories. Embodies Pirandello's innovations of theatre by using a stage without sets. A masterly feat of drama exploring the many facets of reality. |
