Chamber_play Knowpia

A chamber play is a play of usually three acts which can be performed with a small cast and practically no sets or costumes in a small space. The form became popular in the early 20th century, with leading exponents being Max Reinhardt and August Strindberg.^[1] The first cinema adaptation was Kammerspielfilm in the 1920s, and the format was later adapted for cinema by Ingmar Bergman^[2] and Carl Theodor Dreyer.^[3]

The name is derived from the term chamber music.^[4]
