Managing Economic Crises in the Global Theatrical/Towers and the Wind" by Thysser Renkhevo as a Case Study

Abstract

Economic crises have emerged as significant and complex phenomena with far-reaching consequences, affecting diverse systems and societies across the globe. The aftermath of the two world wars in the 20th century witnessed the occurrence of such crises, capturing the attention of intellectuals, theorists, and artists, including playwrights. Within the realm of theater, these playwrights have embarked on a profound exploration of economic crises, delving into their multifaceted manifestations and implications. By scrutinizing the causes, critically analyzing various aspects, and evaluating the impacts, these playwrights have endeavored to illuminate the nature and consequences of economic crises. The primary objective of this research is to conduct an in-depth investigation into the prominent economic crises that have unfolded in different parts of the world and to examine how playwrights have portrayed and confronted these crises within their theatrical works. This research seeks to shed light on the strategies employed by playwrights in navigating the intricate terrain of economic crises, with a view to fostering social awareness and understanding. Through an exploration of theatrical texts on a global scale, this study aims to unravel the artistic approaches, creative techniques, and narrative devices employed by playwrights to bring economic crises to the forefront of public consciousness.  By examining the plays' themes, characterizations, plot structures, and dramatic techniques, this research intends to unravel the nuanced perspectives and intricate layers of meaning embedded within the theatrical representations of economic crises. Furthermore, the study will analyze how playwrights address key questions, such as the ideological frameworks within which economic crises are explored, whether these crises are depicted as objective documentary accounts or subjective reflections of reality, and how the plays reflect the broader societal impacts and the coping mechanisms employed in response to economic crises. By employing a comprehensive methodological framework, this research aims to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on the intersection of theater and economic crises.
