Quick Summary

Teatro sintetico futurista (Synthetic Futurist Theatre) was a theoretical work by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, published in 1916. It outlined his ideas for a new form of theatre that rejected traditional dramatic structures. Marinetti, the founder of Futurism, advocated for a theatre that embraced speed, technology, and the chaotic energy of modern life. His concept aimed to shock and provoke audiences, breaking down the "fourth wall" and challenging bourgeois sensibilities. This approach influenced avant-garde theatre movements, including Dada and Surrealism.12
