Satirical Theatre

Performance style

Satire is a performance style that uses comic exaggeration to ridicule human institutions, behaviour among other things (commonly politics or significant current events.) Irony, parody and caricature are often used. Satirical theatre is often performed with the intentions of causing change as a sort of peaceful protest, however these plays are often mocking and use ridicule.
