Elinor  Fuchs ’ Visit to a Small Planet: Some Questions to Ask a Play

We must make the assumption that in the world of the play there are no accidents. Nothing occurs “by chance,” not even chance. In that case, nothing in the play is without significance. Correspondingly, the play asks us to focus upon it a total awareness, to bring our attention and curiosity without the censorship of selective interpretation, “good taste,” or “correct form.” Before making judgments, we must ask questions. This is the deepest meaning of the idea, often-repeated but little understood, that the study of art shows us how to live.  

I. The World of the Play: First Things First  

A play is not a flat work of literature, not a description in poetry of another world, but is in itself another world passing before you in time and space. Language is only one part of this world. Those who think too exclusively in terms of language find it hard to read plays. When you “see” this other world, when you experience its space-time dynamics, its architectonics, then you can figure out the role of language in it.

If too tight a focus on language makes it hard to read plays, too tight a focus on character creates the opposite problem: it makes the reading too easy. To look at dra- matic structures narrowly in terms of characters risks unproblematically collapsing this strange world into our own world. The stage world never obeys the same rules as ours, because in its world, nothing else is possible besides what is there: no one else lives there; no other geography is available; no alternative actions can be taken.  

To see this entire world, do this literally: Mold the play into a medium-sized ball, set it before you in the middle distance, and squint your eyes. Make the ball small enough that you can see the entire planet, not so small that you lose detail, and not so large that detail overwhelms the whole.  

Before you is the “world of the play.” Still squinting, ask about the space. What is space like on this planet? Interior or exterior, built or natural? Is space here confined or wide open? Do you see a long passage with many “stations”? Do you see a landscape of valleys and mountains? Sea and land? Are we on an island? In a cave? In a desert or a jungle? On a country road?  

Now ask about the time. How does time behave on this planet? Does “time stand still”? Is time frantic and staccato on this planet? Is it leisurely, easy-going time? How is time marked on this planet? By clock? By the sun? By the sound of footsteps? What kind of time are we in? Cyclical time? Eternal time? Linear time? What kind of line? One day? One lifetime?  

Ask about the climate on this planet. Do we have storms? Eclipses of the sun and moon? Do we have extreme heat? Paralyzing cold? Is the environment on this planet lush and abundant, sere and life-denying, airless and suffocating? What is the seasonal “feel” of this world? Autumnal? Wintry?  

What is the mood on this planet? Jolly? Serious? Sad? Ironic? Sepulchral? The mood is not just a question of plot (comedies are “happy,” etc.), “tone” also contributes to mood. What is the tone of this planet? Delicate or coarse? Cerebral or passionate? Restrained or violent? How are mood and tone created on this planet? Through music? Light, sound, color, shape? What shapes? Curves? Angles?  

Remember, you can’t just decide the planet is wintry or dark because you think it would look more interesting in snow or smog, at least not yet. Make sure you’re alert to what’s there; there should be actual evidence on the planet for what you report.

You’re not done. In most dramatic worlds there are hidden, or at least unseen, spaces. Ask questions about them as well. What are their characteristics of space, time, tone, and mood? How do they relate to the represented world, the world you can see?  

Finally, while you’re looking at this planet, listen to its “music.” Every dramatic world will have, or suggest, characteristic sounds—of mourning, celebration, chil- dren’s patter, incantation. It will alternate sounds of human and landscape, or sound and silence. Listen for the pattern of the sound.  

II. The Social World of the Play: A Closer Look  

You are still not ready to examine the beings who inhabit this world. Before you inquire into their individual traits and motives, there are other things you need to know.

Keep squinting at the planet. Is this a public world, or private? What are its class rules? Aristocratic? Popular? Mixed?

In what kinds of patterns do the figures on this planet arrange themselves? Do you see groups in action, isolated individuals, both? Is there a single central figure, sur- rounded by a group? Are figures matched off in conflicting pairs? Are you seeing (and feeling) the tension of interlocking triangles?

How do figures appear on this planet? Are they inward or two-dimensional? Subtle? Exaggerated? Are they like puppets? Like clowns? Like you? (Are you sure?)

How do figures dress on this planet? In rags, in gowns, in cardboard cutouts? Like us? (Are you sure?)

How do figures interact? By fighting? Reasoned discussion?

Who has power on this planet? How is it achieved? Over whom is it exercised? To what ends is it exercised?

What are the language habits on this planet? Verse or prose, dialogue or mono- logue, certainly. But also, what kinds of language predominate—of thoughts or of feelings? And what kinds of feelings? Is language colorful or flat, clipped or flowing, metaphorical or logical? Exuberant or deliberate? And what about silences?

III. What Changes?

You have gotten a feel for this world. Now look at it dynamically, because it moves in time. Within the “rules” of its operation, nothing stays the same. What changes in this world?

Look at the first image. Now look at the last. Then locate some striking image near the center of the play (the empty box in Kyd’s The Spanish Tragedy is a good example). To give an account of destiny on this planet range over these three markers. Why was it essential to pass through the gate of the central image to get from the first to the last?

What changes in the landscape of this world? Does it move from inside to out- side? From valleys to mountains? From town to wilderness?

What changes in time? Does time move from dusk to night? Night to dawn? Morning to midnight? Through four seasons of a year? Through the stages of a human life? Or the stages of eternal life, from Creation to Last Judgment?

What changes in language? In tone, mood, dress?

All of the changes you discover will of course contribute to and reflect on char- acter, but each trajectory should be seen as a signifying system on its own.

What changes in the action? Have we moved from confusion to wedding (the basic plot of romantic comedy)? From threat to peaceful celebration (the basic plot of [traditional] tragicomedy)? From threat to disaster (the basic plot of tragedy)? From suffering to rebirth (the plot of the Passion play)? From threat to dual outcome, suffer- ing for evil persons and vindication for good (the basic plot of melodrama)?

What doesn’t change? Is there a stable or fixed point in this world? An absolute reality? God? The grave?

Squint one last time. Putting together space, time, the natural world and the social world, elements that change and those that don’t, you are discovering the “myth.” Plays are full of archetypal places — castles, gardens, forests, roads, islands, green worlds, dream worlds, storms, night scenes, and on and on. If the play starts in a palace, goes on to a moonlit forest, and returns to the palace the next day or night (which is it? day or night?), what does that progression tell you? How is the final palace scene condi- tioned by the night journey into the forest? Is the world of the play at the end of the play a transformed world? Or is it the same world returned to “normal,” with minor adjustments? Worlds stand or fall on your answer.

IV. Don’t Forget Yourself

Seeking what changes, don’t forget to ask what changes in you, the imaginer of worlds. Ask, what has this world demanded of me? Does it ask me for pity and fear? Does it ask me to reason? To physically participate in the action on the stage? Does it ask me to interact with other spectators? To leave the theater and take political action? To search my ethical being to the core? Maybe this world means only to entertain me, why not? But how does it make this intention known?

V. Theatrical Mirrors

Important as these internal systems are, dramatic worlds don’t just speak to and within themselves; they also speak to each other. How many performances are signaling to you from inside this world? How many echoes of other dramatic worlds do they sug- gest? How do these additional layers of theatricality comment on what you have already discovered?

VI. The Character Fits the Pattern

Only now are you really ready to examine the figures who inhabit this world. Every assumption you make about a character must reflect the conditions of its world, including the way psychology functions in that world. You can arrive at the most inter- esting version of any question about character by first exploring the features of her theatrical planet. Characters mean only as they inhabit, enact, fulfill, engage a succes- sion of sites, actions, and objects under a specific set of conditions. They are constituents of a complex artistic pattern. Find the pattern first!

Warning: Don’t permit yourself to construct a pattern that omits “singularities,” puzzling events, objects, figures, or scenes that “do not fit.” Remember, there is noth- ing in the world of a play by accident.

The puzzles may hold the key. Assume that the dramatic world is entirely conscious, determinate, limited. Give an account of that world that attempts to consider the role of every element in that world — visual, aural, temporal, tonal, figural. Become curious as each element is revealed as a player in the play. Be someone who is aroused to meaning.

Of course you can construct meaning in this world in many different ways. Construct it in the most inclusive way you can. There will still be more to see.

Empty Space by Peter Brook, Visits to a Small Planet by Elanor Fuchs

' src=

Any theatre work I read or research I always try to project and compare the idea behind it with the plays which impressed me. The Empty Space by Peter Brook is an creative exploration of four views of theatre Deadly, Holy, Rough, Immediate. It starts with the statement ‘I can take any empty space and call it a bare stage’ which sets the tone of the all whole material. The Deadly is the one we see most often, it is considered to be more commercial. Nowadays, it is getting hard to entertain the audience, the interest is getting down as it carries less innovation and looks old fashioned. Deadly represents mostly classic approach. Sometimes, actors are having a hard time managing rehearsals on time. Overall, great theatre rely upon on a great spectator, whilst every audience has the theatre it deserves.

On the other hand, Immediate theatre explores more deep about director – actor – audience – relationship. This is where you can get subtleties of a good collaboration – starting from design, ending up with rehearsals and final production. As well as how theatre defies rules, builds up and shatters illusions, creates lasting memories for its spectators. Eventually, when a performance is done, what remains? If the emotions and impressions lead you to sense more clearly into itself — then something magical in the mind occurs. This is something I have been lucky to experience after Derek DelGaudio’s In and Of Itself performance, directed by Frank Oz. This performance sets a bar for being a very high quality play.

“Elinor Fuchs’s Visit to a Small Planet” is a practical guide on how to start thinking about plays, how to approach those. It is done by proper questioning while witnessing the play from the very far. This is where you should start thinking about time, space, inner and outer worlds, connecting the dots, define the rules to achieve a harmony.

Visit to a Small Planet

  • The weirdest alien of the galaxy pays a visit to Earth...
  • Jerry Lewis is Kreton, a childish alien who, against his teacher's will leaves his planet to visit the Earth, and lands in the backyard of a famous television journalist who doesn't believe in U.F.O's and aliens. Wanting to study humans but not able to fully understand them, Kreton makes a mess out of it, generating a lot of comic situations. — Alessio Quirino

What is the smallest known planet?

Although Kepler 37-b has held the title of "smallest planet" for over a decade, it won't hold that designation forever.

Pluto and Charon appear in a composite of natural-color images obtained by New Horizons space probe on July 13 and 14, 2015. Image released July 24, 2015.

By most measures, Earth is small. The solar system's largest planet, Jupiter , could fit over 1,300 Earths inside it. But Earth isn't the smallest planet in the solar system; that title went to Mercury after Pluto was relegated to a dwarf planet in 2006. But are there even smaller planets out there? And, if so, do we know of any?

Unsurprisingly, very small exoplanets , or planets orbiting other stars, are extremely hard to spot. But of the ones scientists have found, the smallest is Kepler 37-b. Discovered in 2013 by scientists using data from the Kepler space telescope , it is smaller than Mercury and about the same size as Earth's m oon .

"We were finding quite a few Earth-sized things, but not very much smaller than that," said Thomas Barclay, an astrophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and first author of the 2013 paper that first identified the planet. "It was kind of an outlier."

Like all exoplanets discovered by the Kepler space telescope, Kepler 37-b was detected using a technique called the transit method. As faraway planets orbit their stars, they transit — or pass in front of — their stars, creating a slight dimming of the star. For stars and planets in the right position relative to our solar system, scientists can analyze the dimming and infer not only the existence of a planet but also some of its properties — what it's made of, its distance from its star, and its size.

As its name suggests, this tiny exoplanet orbits the star Kepler-37, which is about 209 light-years from Earth. Kepler-37 is the same general type of star as the sun , but it's slightly smaller and cooler. It also hosts three other planets, though none are as small as Kepler 37-b. To confirm the size of Kepler-37 — and, therefore, the size of Kepler 37-b — Barclay said his team worked with colleagues who used asteroseismology , the analysis of the natural oscillations in a star's brightness. 

Kepler 37-b is rocky and much closer to its star than Earth — or even Mercury — is to the sun. Therefore, Kepler 37-b takes only 13.4 Earth days to orbit its star. Like Mercury, it likely has an extremely harsh surface and no atmosphere.

But is Kepler 37-b really a planet? It certainly isn't like any of the planets in the solar system . In fact, the definition of a planet is tailored mostly to our solar system, Barclay said. According to the International Astronomical Union, a planet must orbit a star, be large enough to have coalesced into a spherical shape, and clear its orbit and surrounding area of any objects of similar size.

With exoplanets, it's harder to say for sure, and it can be especially difficult to tell if an exoplanet is truly clearing debris and similarly sized objects from its orbit, Barclay said. But with Kepler 37-b, there isn't much doubt, he added.

"It's big enough, and has enough gravity; it's close enough to its star that it would clear out an area of influence," he said. "So it certainly would be considered a planet by any definition."

Although Kepler 37-b has held the title of "smallest planet" for over a decade, it won't hold that designation forever, Barclay said. Since the Kepler space telescope was retired in 2018, scientists have been devising new ways to discover exoplanets, including the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope , for which Barclay is the operations scientist.

The telescope, scheduled for launch by May 2027, will use a technique called microlensing, a type of gravitational lensing , to find exoplanets. Microlensing events happen when a star's gravity bends the light from a more distant, unrelated background star around it. If the alignment is perfect, the closer star works as a lens for the background star, magnifying its light. If the closer star has a planet, the light is amplified more. Scientists can analyze the minute spike in light to infer the properties of any exoplanets orbiting the closer star. 

According to NASA, the Roman telescope may find about 2,600 exoplanets by scanning the skies for these microlensing events. The new telescope "almost certainly is going to find planets smaller than this one," Barclay said.
