		Play, (noun) or the act of playing (verb) refers to the act of engaging in unrestrained, amusing interaction with people or things, often in the context of learning.
		It is equally a common and a behavioural science term, and the act of playing has, in recent decades, come into light as essential behaviour of species' environmental and social adaptation processes (such as in learning basic hunting skills.).
		Plays are generally performed in a theatre, by actors.

	All About Jewish Theatre - Yiddish Theatre stages Asch’s controversial play
		A play set in a shtetl brothel that once landed its producer and entire cast in court on obscenity charges and made the American Jewish community very uncomfortable is being brought out of the closet by the Dora Wasserman Yiddish Theatre.
		While she doubts anyone will be offended by the sexual content, Wasserman does hope audiences will be a little unsettled by the moral and religious questions raised, namely should the sins of the father be visited on the children, can respectability be bought, who deserves a second chance, and what is the nature of God.
		Wasserman, who has been studying as much material as she can about the play including the transcript of the 1922 trial, said she believes it is important for the Yiddish Theatre, founded by her late mother, to present the spectrum of the Yiddish canon and not only the musicals, comedies and sentimental tales.

	ARTicles: Love Play - the theatre of Marivaux
		The theatres also served as unofficial refuges for abandoned mistresses and courtesans, who avoided imprisonment for indecency if they were able to register as nominal members of the ever-expanding acting companies.
		The revolution that brought an end to the excesses of the aristocracy was itself born from a philosophical revolt, the Enlightenment, whose roots lay in the philosophical and mathematical discoveries of Descartes and Newton.
		Marivaux may mock the philosophers' world-view as naïve and simplistic, but the play is no less critical of the amorous princess, whose quest for love leads her into a maze of duplicity and cruelty.

		The play is notorious for being ruthless in exposing the horror of the trenches and the callous incompetence of the ruling classes that plunged Europe into war in 1914.
		Some people felt that the play voiced their own thoughts and feelings about war and conflict, whilst many of the older generation were shocked by the show's attitude toward the generals and civilians who sent a generation of young men off to the slaughterhouse of Ypres and the Somme.
		The play was ground-breaking in a number of ways, because it had no immediate human focus, or any continuing character that the audience could come to care about, or even any story to speak of, or a real resolution.
