商品簡介
Immersive theater calls upon audience members to become participants, actors and “others.” It traditionally offers binary roles—that of oppressor or that of victim—and thereby stands the risk of simplifying complex social situations. This book is both about plays, and about writing and staging them for immersive theater, particularly in the areas of juvenile detention, wartime interventions and immigration processes. It presents scripts and strategies for practitioners who want to create theatrical environments that are pedagogical, aesthetically evocative and politically provocative—and both simple and complex.
