The Exposition Coloniale (Colonial Exposition) was a exposition of the arts, crafts and industries of the French colonies. Antonin Artaud visited the exposition in Paris in 1931 and was able to see a representation of traditional Balinese Theater. This representation greatly influenced the writer's theory about theater.
