Produktbeschreibung

Dramaturgies of Immersion draws on case studies from international productions to conceptualise and analyse the state of contemporary immersive theatre. Immersion appears in different forms, raising the core question: What is at stake in immersive theatre for participants, artists, and society? The answer depends on the underlying values of the different immersive poetics.

The book takes a multifaceted approach to immersive theatre and its dramaturgies to explore the forms of emersion rendered possible by immersion in a number of cases from international and Danish performances. The edited collection examines how theatre in the 21st century finds adequate forms that allow it to both entertain and stay socially relevant. The chapters build on each other, developing a specific way of thinking about and analysing dramaturgies in immersive theatre, as well as offering tools for dramaturgical analysis.

An insightful exploration of the potentials of immersive theatre, Dramaturgies of Immersion is essential for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students of dramaturgy and immersive theatre, scholars and researchers in these fields, as well as theatre practitioners.
