Main article: Musical theatre
Musical theatre is a form of theatre combining music, songs, dance routines, and spoken dialogue. Modern musical theatre emerged from the variety shows and "follies" of the early 20th century and includes a combination of dialogue, song and dance, and spectacle. Broadway musicals of the 21st century include lavish costumes and sets supported by million dollar budgets
Style: Classical theatre
‘Classical theatre’ may be interpreted beyond strict boundaries. It is not interchangeable in meaning with 'classics'.
Spanning across the centuries, it can include the work of ancient Greek tragedians, Shakespeare, not to mention new writing that some may see as 'classic' - though often this loose terminology bleeds far from the vein of classical theatre.
Classical theatre tends towards the text-based, whereby the core of the performance is in the primacy of language. ‘Whether poetry, prose or a combination of the two…language is the subtlest means of exploring both situation and character’.
Classical theatre throughout history
While playwrights had distinct styles, subjects and perspectives, classic works in their original shape conformed to tacit rules of play. Trends in the societal time were reflected in the text. For example, Greek drama was closely associated with religion, with stories based on myth or history. Medieval drama was dominated by religion but with little sense of history. Theatre was banned in Scotland as early on as medieval times, the Catholic Church reacting against Court performances, pagan-derived folk plays, biblical enactments and festive pageantry.
Moving on, it was not only Shakespeare that was productive in Elizabethan times. Sir David Lyndsay’s Ane Satyre of the Thrie Estaits was first performed before James V in 1540, providing an example of one of the theatrical fruits of that time.
