in postmodernism. The theory appeared during 60th – 70th century in
some theatres such as “Conference of the Birds”.
Special theatrical forms have been developed in many
geographical- cultural areas of the world and are indigenous to that
area. These forms, as compared with original forms, are considered to
be traditional while being comprehensive, the form is considered to
be national. Kaboudan and Sfandiar theatre has been influenced by
elements of traditional form of Iran.
