Facade: coming to a theatre near you

By TerrellT - Posted on 01 December 2008

It strikes me as odd to think about Facade as an actual dramatic piece. What makes me feel a bit anxious about it as a whole is the fact that if we consider its production as a text that we read (text in the literary sense), the text is fluid and depends upon our interpretation of it. Facade itself doe snot exist independent of our reading it but rahter is depednet upon us to make it complete.

There is an argument I feel, however, for the notion that even novels require us to make them complete as without us they are just words on a page. When considering literature can we allow, the requirement of participation to affect our sorting of it as a text?
