Ideas

What makes a theatre performance happen?

16 Jan 2010

Following our first workshop for our forthcoming Unusual Spaces project, we had the following ideas.

What makes a theatre performance happen

An audience

A space - the same story performed in a museum and then again in M+S felt very different

Less is more

Submerged meanings

Subtle

Respect for the space in a non naturalistic setting

An awareness from other people

Drama

People's reaction

Knowing it's not real, but it feels real

Mood

Good dialogue

Wordlessness

Finding connections

A relationship between the space and the story

Enjoyment

Not trying to hard
