About Theatre
- The theater is one of the old and classic art forms that has managed to survive to this day even though the theater has faced hard competition during the twentieth century in the form of TV and the internet. Yet, the theatre is still here.
- Many of the greatest works writers within world literature wrote for the theatre, such as the perhaps greatest icon of them all, William Shakespeare, whose classic plays are performed worldwide even today.
- Keynote speakers on theater typically focus on artistic and historical angles as well as questions relating to cultural theory and politics. Often the keynote speakers are themselves, one way or the other, linked to the world of theater, maybe as playwright, director or actor. Or the keynote speakers might be experts, reviewers, etc.
- Even good keynote speakers can’t quite explain the magic of the theater, and perhaps good thing too, but they can tell you more about the theater and its workings, and perhaps even offer some insight into why the magic works the way that it does.
