Abstract
The article discusses the communication strategies used by contemporary playwrights to include the reader in the action of the play. The author of the article notes that the latest Russian drama originates from the “new drama” (or “new new drama”) movement, whose representatives turned to the aesthetics of shock to influence the audience, showing marginal characters in an ugly, disgusting world. Today, the communication strategies between the author and the reader and the impact on the recipient have changed. The researcher aims to consider how the playwrights who came after the authors of the “new drama” build communication with the reader. The tasks that are solved in the work are to analyze the works of modern drama from the point of view of the structure of the action, the series of events, compositional construction and to find in the plays the possibilities for the strongest connection of the reader to the content of the work. As material, the plays by Anya Agapova (“Shop of unnecessary things”) and Daniil Gursky (“activity: fear and awe vol.1”), presented at the festival of young dramaturgy “Lubimovka” in recent years, are considered. The selected plays are interesting in that the authors use constructions that are atypical for dramaturgy, suggesting new ways of interacting with the reader for a contemporary play. As a result of the study, the author of the article comes to the conclusion that the dramatic action, inscribed in the game structures, allows you to activate the processes of perception, give the reader freedom in interpreting the meaning and make him a fullfledged co-author of the work.
