Opis

Theatre is traditionally considered a live medium but its liveness is increasingly challenged by other media. This book explores how theatre performances that incorporate film or video self-reflexively stage their own liveness. Combining theoretical insight with close analysis of productions by leading companies of intermedial performance, this monograph appeals to scholars and practitioners of theatre, performance and intermediality."
