Literature and theatre share similar techniques and practices. The apologue, such as Aesop’s fable The Belly and the Members, illustrates how ideas can be transmitted from one text to another. This idea can be transposed to the theatre using scenographic techniques, creating a continuity between works and generations of artists and spectators. Apologue tells the story of two body parts fighting over their respective importance who eventually realize that they are both indispensable and must cooperate to maintain harmony in the body.
