Theatrical Composition

Theatrical Composition is a systematic method within dramaturgical research that structures performative elements—such as narrative, gesture, space, and dialogue—into a cohesive and semiotically meaningful arrangement, distinguishing it from other scholarly contributions by its focus on the artful synthesis of theatrical components to generate knowledge through performance.
