Abstract :It will be seen in this article that the famous director Robert Wilson `s Einstein On The Beach production goes through the post dramatic filter of the Train scene by going deep into the post dramatic. The images, dancers, light and music of the scene, which will be examined through the breaking of the dramatic through the post dramatic elements, will also be examined. For this, it is necessary to first know the dramatic theater elements, then analyze how these elements are broken in the Postdramatic. Because in postdramatic theater, we see what the dramatic theater is rather than what it is. As Lehmann conveyed, we cannot describe the term postdramatic with the term `post-dramatic`. We can describe the dramatic with perhaps imaginative or performative turn. We will see our efforts to find a solution to this problem through the relevant article. The corresponding production is a long opera that is not the subject of Einstein`s emerging from a famous beach photo. Some important details, from Einstein`s appearance to some of his theories, have been turned into a stage-by-show visual show. Summary information of the enrichment of the images, which is one of the most basic outcomes of post dramatic and the most known technique of Robert Wilson, with the performances of the dancers on the stage, the breaking of the game text, as well as bringing the audience to an illusion in a different dimension, will be explained under a single title.
