Abstract

The aesthetics of stage speech have changed with the development of new practices in staging plays. Unique and peculiar themes have encouraged and promoted a different, more modern approach by language consultants. Moreover, the spoken realization of a text in the theater is also always affected by the circumstances on stage and a set of other theatrical forms of expression. This article describes the process of transforming a theater text into spoken reality on the stage based on an excerpt from the staging of the contemporary play Hodnik (The Corridor) by Matjaž Zupančič. It raises open questions regarding standard spoken language and language in theater in general by examining this phenomenon from a different point of view.
