  Abstract:  The Nights of the Stage. This paper studies the complex relations between theatre and night, beginning with the great Wagnerian revolution (the dark auditorium). After the fascination for the night in symbolist theatre, Brecht wanted a restoration of the light and of the day, adequate for his poetics of “distanciation”. Jean Vilar explored the creative possibilities of the warm nights in southern France during the Avignon Festival. A few more stage directors are analyzed here, for whom the night as time and space, or as metaphor is very important: Strehler, Chéreau, Grüber, Grotowski, Vitez. Keywords: theatre, scene, night, Wagner, Vilar, Strehler, Chéreau, Grüber, Grotowski, Vitez.
