A Day in the death of Joe Egg-Realism Vs Abstract
‘This disarmingly amusing play, a modern classic of British theatre, is in turns tragic, thought provoking and laugh-out-loud funny. ...
Realism Vs Abstract
The different aspects of direction were well in proportion, as in stage business, levels, set design, lighting and the use of comedy and drama. ...
The interpretation of this particular production is divided into two groups; Realism and Abstract (which is formally known as the Brechtian style). ... But the abstract elements of production include the characters rein acting the past, characters taking part in multiple roles as seen when Brian and Sheila rein act and take different roles whilst explaining to the audience how they found out that their daughter Joe was mentally retarded, which also shows the conversation directly to the audience, still reminding them that ‘this is a play’, and not a real story.
