Abstract

This text offers a critical-artistic reflection on a dichotomy that currently generates controversy in the theatrical field: representation–presentation. It is analyzed from a historical, poetic, and practical perspective. This search leads to highlighting how contemporary theater has challenged traditional conventions by actively involving the spectator in the performing process. This participation of the public as a 'participant' or 'witness' transforms the theatrical experience into a collaborative and co-creative event, where the barrier between actor and spectator is blurred. This approach not only redefines the relationship between the play and its audience, but also raises questions about the very nature of theater and its purpose in contemporary society.
