Bauhaus school is featured with its theatrical performance shows, which its scenes been designed by German designer Oscar Schlemmer. He analyzed the form of the human body and searched for the essence of the concept behind the form. Bauhaus was influenced by architecture and understanding relationship between body and space. According to Schlemmer's theory in designing the theatrical image, the researcher applies contemporary designs to a plastic background for one of the performances in Egypt.Search problem: Lack knowledge of the tools and aesthetic criteria that Bauhaus used to make theatrical image far from traditional style. Search importance: Finding a new visual image of plastic background that it has movement style and knowing about the relationship between body and space according to Bauhaus school.
