While metadramatic scenes are most often concerned with theater itself, the performance-within-a-play adopts an important function in the play's plot, and consequently, in the social world of the play.The performance-within-a-play is particularly associated by the classical playwrights with the family structure, with the class system, with women's social roles, and with the politics of absolutism."--Jacket. 0aActing techniques 0aPerforming Arts 0aPlays / Drama 0aPerforming Arts/Dance 0aContinental European 0aDrama 0aTheater - Stagecraft 0a17th century c633000d633000 00104070aACLbACLcGENd2026-09-27l0o842.40924 CASp220208r2026-09-27 13:28:36w2026-09-27yBK
