Full Proposal (PDF)

The intention of this collaborative research group is to push at the traditional boundaries that define the relationships between performers, spectators and a theatrical environment by creating an empowered performance environment that usurps some of the traditional roles allocated to the spectators and the performers. In effect, we will be attempting to create an environment that itself performs rather than merely supporting performance, and that responds to the presence, movements, touch, and sounds of people within that environment – be they performers or spectators.
