In this fourth and last paper, I will give my opinion about the theatre in a future not very distant.
I think that it is very difficult to make a deep reflection about how it will be the theatre in some years since not even we know what is what it will happen tomorrow.
Currently, the theatre is very influenced by the political and social facts that occur in the world ( or in a specific city...) , so much as wars, terrorism, natural catastrophes, illness or good eras of riches of the country, technological development . According to the era of the author, he will narrate some facts or other, he always influenced by the socio-political characteristics of the country. Due to the world so “catastrophic” that we live these days (wars, catastrophes, terrorism), it would provoke in the playwrights a “bitter” reaction, that it is turns into in pessimism on time of writing their plays. I think that the playwright to forget the misfortunes to the public, that they are shown in the media currently, they made comedies very funny trying social or political problems where the people can disconnect of the exterior world. The plays will depend of the ideology of the playwright that he writes them and of the life and the events that he avoids him.
Other topic that I like to try, it is the future of the theatre in the face of the television or the cinema. The people that they are interested in the theatre, really, they don't substitute the representations by the television.
Rafael Álvarez, “El Brujo”, in an interview to the Digital Ideal, he confessed that he has backed a new type of theatre where it doesn't exist the boredom.
On 26 of May of 2002, Luis Alberto of Basin, he recognized that the theatre needs money and imagination in Spain, and he takes note of different recommendations of experts in the sector. Currently, the situation hasn't changed.
The theatre hasn't as much public as the television or the cinema, between other, due to the lack of publicity and information. For example, currently almost all the chains of television have a space dedicated to the cinema, exclusively.
My overview of the future of the theatre is that this will not disappear ever because there are always people that they go to the theatre and that they value the daily effort of the theatrical companies, really.
Nobody will forget to Sophocles, Shakespeare, Oscar Wilde...between many other.
