Abstract

This paper is structured as an analytical dialogue, challenged by the performance The Bee Inside the Head by Roland Schimmelpfennig, directed by Theodor‐Cristian Popescu (produced by the National Theatre of Târgu‐Mures, the Liviu Rebreanu Company). Starting from the definitions proposed by Hans‐Thies Lehmann in his book, Postdramatic Theatre, this analysis frames the abovementioned theatrical performance into the realm of scenic poetry, following all the stage mechanisms that avoid the classical construction of a theatrical event.
