Abstract: This review elucidated the theory of realism under two categories. The first category was the romantic realism, while the second category is the true realism. The former involves drama with idealized subjects mounted in an extremely detailed and historically accurate settings with costumes. However, in the second category called true realism, the plays based on non-idealized contemporary subjects were presented in settings designed to reveal a significant interaction of the character’s environment and action. This concept therefore provided a truthful representation of the real world which is based on direct observation of contemporary life and manners.
