As audiences today, we increasingly find that our input has become indispensible to the process of performance-making. No longer sitting quietly in the dark, we have been pulled in and invited to take part.<\/p>\n
As part of the University of Kent’s\u00a0Lifting the Curtain<\/i>\u00a0event series, this two-day encounter at the Institute of Contemporary Arts<\/a> brought together artists, academics and audiences in a shared exploration of the new trend. The event was co-facilitated by performance company Accidental Collective<\/a>, Chris Johnston (Argument Room\/Rideout) and Du\u0161ka Radosavljevi\u0107<\/a> (University of Kent lecturer in Drama and Theatre), and it was generously supported by KIASH<\/a>, ETRN<\/a> and CKP<\/a>.<\/p>\n One interesting segment of the discussion featuring David Edgar (playwright), Annette Mees (Coney) and Jake Orr (A Younger Theatre) can be viewed on the Argument Room<\/a> website.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n More information on the event can be found on the ICA website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
