Abstract

Stereotyping in acting performance has been a prominent phenomenon recently, especially in youth theater performances, which resulted in a defect in the nature of conveying the dramatic and expressive dimensions in the actor’s performance. Therefore, the researcher decided to delve into this study, which she divided into the following:

The first section is entitled (The stereotypical similarity between form and content), which deals with the structure of the form in the show and how to communicate the contents in the theatrical performance. The second section discusses the title (Youth theater between stereotypes and innovation) which deals with how The emergence of youth theater and the extent to which they benefit from the performance references of the pioneers.
