한국의 희곡/연극 이론의 주요 텍스트인 「광대가」와 일본 희곡/연극 이론의 주요 텍스트인 「풍자화전」을 비교해 보면, 「광대가」는 다음과 같은 희곡/연극 이론으로서의 특징을 드러내고 있다. 첫째, 그 전체 내용 구성상에서는, 본질론·배우론·상연론 등 3개의 영역으로 구성되어 있으면서, 텍스트 중심의 희곡/연극이론이 아니라, 공연자 중심의 희곡/연극이론을 구축하고 있다. 둘째, 희곡/연극 본질론 상으로는, '공연하는 인간(homo performans)'으로서의 자각과 실천, '자생적 가치'의 옹호, 민중적 가치의 옹호, 민중적인 현세주의·허무주의에 대한 새로운 해석 등의 특징을 보여준다. 셋째, 배우론/연기론 상으로는 '4체 이론'을 골자로 해서 이론이 구축되고 있다. 넷째, 상연론 상의 특징으로는, 「풍자화전」의 그것이 '꽃의 실현'에 그 궁극적인 목표가 있는 반면에, 「광대가」의 그것은 우주 삼라만상의 온갖 변화와 조화를 표현하는 '천변만화(千變萬化)의 구현에 그 목표를 두고 있다.
