Brecht didn't devise plays to entertain the audience, he wanted to challenge them which I think, despite being unusual as theatre being a peice of art is mostly destined to be entertaining. is a very unique yet effective way to look upon it. Brecht was fond of gestures and how the audience should never rely on just the words coming out of an actors' mouth. He believed that actors should always stand and speak, never walk whilst addressing their lines as it can be seen as taking the importance away from what they were actually saying. The emphasised gestures Brecht wanted from his actors created Gestus; someone who doesn't even speak the language the play is in should still be able to intently follow the story line and know exactly what is going on because of the gestures.
