In the antecedent chapter of the article, the structural parts of the theatre’s ability to create illusion are taken into consideration. These parts differ from each other as the world of audience (daily life) and the world of theatre (heterocosmos). In this manner, the boundaries of the two different worlds and the relationship between them, which took place in the phenomenon of theatre starting from its origins in Ancient Greece and continuing until the mid-twentieth century, is opened to discussion in structural and cultural dimensions. The main idea is that, through illusion, in Ancient Greece, two different worlds, which were naturally separated, could organically preserve their vitality as each other's support point. This motion, which shaped the origins of theatre in Ancient Greece, inevitably enters a process of adaptation from the moment it is preternaturally incorporated into Western culture with the Renaissance. As to the following chapter of the article, the connection between the social dissolutions that emerged in daily life with modernism and the world of theater is measured. In this direction, the stage works of Bertolt Brecht and Samuel Beckett in order to harmonize two different worlds with each other are examined, with an emphasis on the way they deal with the phenomenon of theater and its capacity to create illusion.
