In episode four of What the Theory? I take a look at the meaning and definition of dramaturgy. Developed by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing and Bertolt Brecht, the dramaturgical approach and role of the dramaturg in theatre originated in Germany but has come to be used in American theatre and British theatre too as well as elsewhere around the world.

A few books for those interested in some extra reading:

Dramaturgy and Performance by Cathy Turner and Synne Behrndt, Dramaturgy: A Revolution in Theatre by Mary Luckhurst, The Routledge Companion to Dramaturgy\n
