What naturalism and realism share in common is the fact that they are trying to tell stories that seem credible to the audience, something that is in touch with our reality. The difference however is in the portrayal of these stories. While realism allows its characters to talk in a highly stylized manner or make grand poetic statements, naturalism on the other hand tries to be as close to real life as possible. An actor in a naturalistic play wouldn’t want its audience to even think that they are acting. This video comes from David Valdes’ Script Analysis for Theater, a Boston Conservatory course available through Berklee Online.
