This PhD thesis examines the evolution of gender dynamics in Western theatre history up to the year 2000 through the lens of gender and feminist studies. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, encompassing historical inquiry, literary analysis, feminist theory, and cultural studies, this research aims to enrich scientific discourse and promote gender equality within the theatre arts.
Despite recent progress, gender inequality persists in the performing arts, reflecting broader societal disparities. This study delves into the perceptions of gender roles within Western professional theatre and its preceding forms, shedding light on historical and ongoing challenges faced by women, including gender bias.
The findings of this research not only provide valuable insights into the intricate gender dynamics in theatre but also offer recommendations for advancing inclusion, diversity, and gender equality within the industry. These recommendations target theatre practitioners, educators, policymakers, and industry stakeholders, aiming to foster a more inclusive, equitable, and just environment in the theatre arts.
By critically examining the historical context and contemporary challenges, this study contributes to the scholarly exploration of gender dynamics in theatre and lays the groundwork for the development of models of gender equality.
