'''Verbatim theatre''' is a phrase used to describe a type of plays that have become increasingly popular in later years. Verbatim plays are, as the name suggests, written using only verbatim testimony. The playwright interviews people that are connected to the topic that the play is focused on and uses their testimony to construct the piece. |

Redirect to:
- From a merge: This is a redirect from a page that was merged into another page. This redirect was kept in order to preserve the edit history of this page after its content was merged into the content of the target page. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated) or delete this page.
- For redirects with substantive page histories that did not result from page merges use {{R with history}} instead.
- To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to a subsection or subheader, use {{R to subsection}}. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.
