  • The Greek theater was the first one which was built artificially and the Roman theater was erected as creative form following the Greek theater The style of these ancient theaters has influenced modern theater. In terms of the purpose and function of the theater, the Greek was derived from religious purpose but the Roman was derived for amusement. We can observe several differences in comparing the Greek with the Roman theater. In the shape of the theater, the Greek theater was dignified and grand and had an open-air structure, but the Roman theater was splendid and ornamental and had a roof over the stage. In the character of the theater, the Greek theater was democratic but the Roman theater was partial. The Greek and Roman theaters have became one source of the modern theater as the Greek and Roman plays have became the source of the modern play, although there are several differences according to the social and dramatic characters.

Today, the National Theater of Korea, located in Jangchoongfong, Joong-gu, Seoul, asks plans for renovation. The landscape design for the remodeling of the theater is conducted as part of comprehensive programs for its renovation. The Government sought design proposals through a design competition in April, 2002. The authors proposed a landscape design for remodeling the National Theater of Korea and won first place in the competition. The landscape design covers the following a survey of the present status, a site analysis, a schematic design, and design, development. In the authors'design, heavens, humans, earth and nature are symbolically expressed within the site. The outdoor spaces of the National Theater of Korea are organically composed of the following low spaces : 1) a field of creation; 2) a field of recreation; 3) a field of meeting; and 4) a field of contemplation. The field of creation consists of a main entrance, spaces for public performance and plays, spaces with symbolic water features, and resting areas. The field of recreation is composed of various exhibition spaces. The field of meeting consists of traditional Korean-style gardens and an outdoor cafeteria. The field of contemplation features lawns, grasses and trees, and provides an area for pedestrian strolling. The outdoor spaces of the National Theater of Korea would produce an atmosphere suited to a cultural and artistic place.

  • Although the theater performance industry is a typical cultural content industry, the support at the national level has been poor and the theater workers tend to focus on individual efforts rather than active interaction with the theater environment. Therefore, there is a growing need for effective revitalization of the theater industry, which should be found in improving the quality of interaction between the theater and the theater environment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of theater actors (theaters, theater organizations) on the activation of plays by the interaction of politics, business, and technology, the main environment of the plays. For this, social network analysis was performed. As a result of the study, it was found that mediation centrality significantly influenced the visibility of theater actors. This means that the more the theater actors are at the center of information and resource flows to the elements of the theater environment, the more visibility becomes. This shows that the theater must actively acquire technology, create an avant-garde, and endeavor to expand its influence and outreach through active interaction with politics and corporations.

  • Recently we have built a VR(Virtual Reality) theater in Kyongju, Korea, which combines the advantages of VR and IMAX theater. The VR theater provides a virtual environment for several hundreds of people at the same time. The VR theater can be characterized by a single shared screen and by multiple inputs from several hundreds of people. In this case, multi-user interaction is different from that of networked VR systems and must be reconsidered. This paper defines the multi-user interaction in such a VR theater as Audience Interaction, and discusses key issues for the implementation of the Audience Interaction. This paper also presents a real implementation example in the Kyongju VR theater.

  • In the late 1950s, departing from their unquestioning following of Soviet architecture, North Koreans attempted to discover the specificities of traditional Korean architecture and apply them to their contemporary monuments. This paper examines the ways in which North Korean architects developed their unique version of Socialist realism in the making of Pyongyang Grand Theater. The traditional elements in harmony with North Korea's political ideology-an early form of Juche ideology-and modern building technologies were to be viewed as contemporary elements, and not as a simple revival of the past. This study applies Socialist realism's compositional principle "national in form and socialist in content" to Pyongyang Grand Theater and examines specifically what "socialist content" and "national form" were and how the two were combined in the construction of Pyongyang Grand Theater. By situating the building in the context of localization of Socialist realism which is universal art principle of the communist world, this study contributes to the deeper and wider understanding of North Korea's Modern Joseon Architecture.

  • The operation of the theater's seasonal program is an important service for the stability of theater management and audience development. However, the domestic theater season system has been around for 20 years, but still has not been established in practice compared to overseas theaters, and academic research is also lacking. Therefore, in this study, the government wanted to draw out elements of 'season system' program services and additional services provided by domestic and foreign theaters, and to calculate the importance of each attribute to suggest a plan to operate a seasonal service suitable for the actual conditions in Korea. Thus, through the analysis of seven theater seasonal programs, a study model consisting of two higher, seven median and 23 lower factors was derived. Based on this survey, 14 theater experts were asked to compare the priorities of each factor. Studies have shown that the composition of packages and works in program services is important, and that monetary factors are important in additional services. In other words, an important element in the seasonal system is judged to be the need to upgrade program services and selectively operate a small number of additional services with large audience needs to attract audiences.

  • If a drama play is interested in recreating the play text on stage, the post-drama play aims at a drama that has been liberated from the play text. In this process, the boundaries created by drama theater are dismantled. Actors and audiences, fiction and reality, theater and non-theater, works and events, language and non-language are the names of typical boundaries. The demolition of these boundaries is an opportunity to restore the festival character of ancient Greek theater, which was forgotten by drama theater. This has led to the dismantling of language-centric and play-centricism, which has dominated the play since Aristotle, and has led to a new play. If language-centered, play-centricism has brought about the crisis of drama, the post-dramatic play dismisses them and finds ways to communicate with the audience as new cultural content. The method is found above all in the restoration of dramaturgy. This is because the post-drama plays are more dependent on theatricality than literature. The demilitarized nature of post-dramatic play with enhanced theatricality will be a stepping stone to popularization, and this shows the possibility of post-dramatic play as cultural contents.
