Abstract

From a concept developed by Pirandello, the permanence of art form, it is analyzed in this paper the fictionalized reality in association with theatrical metalanguage, or ‘metatheater’. That textual and scenic skill is seen as an opportunity for playwrights discuss the relationship between real and fictional, by placing a sort of illusionism on the plane of his fiction, the reality of characters in action – which is the theatrical text and therefore staging.
