Abstract—Contemporary Irish playwright Marina Carr
integrates eleven-dimension theory into her post dramatic art
creation, forming a unique eleven-dimensional dramaturgy.
This unique eleven-dimensional dramaturgy runs through
Carr's whole drama creation career, and has different focuses
in different periods: in her early drama, Carr concentrated on
the expression of the concept of “non-linear time”. In the
mid-land drama, she focuses on the creation of “high
dimensional space”, while in the later drama of death and
fantasy, she focuses on the presentation of “multidimensional
worlds”. Finally, with the connection of the eleven-dimensional
dramaturgy, Carr created a “non-linear”, “high dimensional”
and “multi-dimensional” dynamic post-dramatic theater, and
conveyed the eleven-dimensional philosophy of life beyond time
and space.
Index Terms—Eleven dimensions, high dimensional space,
multidimensional worlds, non-linear time, post-dramatic
theater
