Le comte Ory and The Magic Flute, are which type of theatre?
The Magic Flute The Magic Flute (German: Die Zauberflöte ), K. 620, is an opera in two acts by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to a German libretto by Emanuel Schikaneder. The work is in the form of a "Singspiel", a popular form that included both singing and spoken dialogue. The work premiered on 30 September 1791 at Schikaneder's theatre, the Freihaus-Theater auf der Wieden in Vienna, just two months before the composer's premature death.
Lehrstücke The Lehrstücke (plural form; singular: "Lehrstück") are a radical and experimental form of modernist theatre developed by Bertolt Brecht and his collaborators from the 1920s to the late 1930s. The "Lehrstücke" stem from Brecht's epic theatre techniques but as a core principle explore the possibilities of learning through acting, playing roles, adopting postures and attitudes etc. and hence no longer divide between actors and audience. Brecht himself translated the term as "learning-play", emphasizing the aspect of learning through participation, whereas the German term could also be understood as "teaching-play". Reiner Steinweg goes so far as to suggest adopting a term coined by the Brazilian avant garde theatre director Zé Celso, "Theatre of Discovery", as being even clearer.
