Summary/Abstract: The theater from the perspective of physical time is the theater of antiquity, middle ages, renaissance, classicism, romanticism, realism or the modern period. The primitive man's first approaches to theatrical art 313 will be realized through mimicry and in and will express man's need to assert himself through an instinctive-emotional manifestation supported by his innate gift to approach others through imitation 314 .If in its beginnings, this creative act of prehistoric man was chaotic, in time, it became a complex theatrical manifestation, which will mirror the evolutionary trajectory ofthe individual in relation to the human species.The etymology of the word „theatre” shows us its double semantic quality.It comes from the ancient Greek θέατρον‎ („a place for viewing”) 315 , from θεάομαι („to see, look at, observe”), and is both a theoretical-poetic notion and an artistic representation that will cause man to look at himself mirrored in his world, becoming a theatrical reflection of times long past into the immediate present.
