Stanley Sheng-Chuan Lai's theatre works are full of diversities; however, it's hard for us to point out anyone among them is belonging to the Orient, and more difficult to Japan. But, in these of his works which tend to be modern ones or are based on realism, we can see something, which cannot be seen in western stage, belonging to eastern philosophy and universal points of view. His understanding of Japan Drama can be traced to his dissertation for Ph.D., Oriental Crosscurrrents in Modern Western Theatre, in UC Berkeley in America, in 1983. What counts a lot in this 500-page academic paper is that Stanley discourses much on Japan Noh Theatre, especially in the Chapter Four, Five and Six. In which, he discusses the drama structure, acting methods, stage symbols, and esthetic elements of Mugen Noh by comparing with the western drama. He also points out some unique analytic points of view in this comparing. No doubt, Stanley studies a lot on Japan Noh Theatre, which should affect his later creative theatre works. Therefore, this thesis tries to discuss the familiarity between his A Dream like a Dream and Japan Noh Theatre, by analyzing the narrative structure and space elements in A Dream like a Dream.
