Theater was outlawed in various contexts primarily due to political or religious reasons. For instance, in Puritan New England during the 17th century, theater was seen as morally corrupt and associated with sin, leading to its prohibition. Similarly, in totalitarian regimes, such as Nazi Germany or Stalinist Russia, theater was censored or controlled to suppress dissent and promote state ideology. These restrictions reflected broader societal fears about the influence of performance on public opinion and behavior.
