Eperimental theatre means theatre without traditional frames and forms of theatre!
It means there is no stage considering traditionaly established form of theatrical performance, but randomly, at any place, performers get together and with anouncing loudly about their experimental play starts their performence!
It is also known as a street theatre, but streat theatre has a perticular identity regarding social issues, contemporary issues highlighted by the performers in a specified evoluionary form of theatre.
Any one knows about these forms? And have seen or participated? Or written such kind of theatre play?

I have not heard of this type of theatre - I have seen street theatre but, as you say, they usually address social or political issues. Is this type of theatre scripted or do the participants just figure things out as they go along. Have you seen this type of theatre - what was it about?

I have done street theatre since 1977 to 1987 regarding social issues.
I have also participated in this experimental theatre and now i am thinking to promot that because of creating a new languege of the theatre has inspired me again to reactive myself as a theatre person!
Experimental theatre deals with improvisation continuously and the next show or performance would have little change in that is the mopto with on going happening! It also deals odd, highly personal, but human issues and deals with mental process of the drama!
Well, still it is on experimental basis!!

I think it would be very interesting to see this kind of theatre - very different and new.
