Certain things should be made clear from the very beginning.
When we speak about creative learning, it is not implied that we refer to the theater. Creative learning aims at entirely different targets. According to Berthold Brecht: the theater’s aim is to entertain, while the specific concern of creative learning is to grasp and acquire knowledge through theatrical ways and paths
If the man of the theater wishes to reach the Aristotelian catharsis by the end of each performance, by the same token, the tutor working in creative learning, desires reaching an analogous plateau, such, that only the conquering of acquired knowledge can provide.
On observing a theatrical play, we see that there is a theme running, a myth or a story that builds the action and within its boundaries, the characters communicate, converse, conflict, sacrifice and live their lives all over again.
We come now to say, that a similar situation is likely to arise in a classroom while the teacher is dealing with the teaching subject.
All he has to do is to discern the myth and the conflicts, to organize the plot, and to arrive finally at the end of the road.
In a similar way that whatever occurs in the natural world is likely to form part of our lives, we could say, that some person, or other people could have it reenacted and then live through the experience.
