How to relate to an audience is a fundamental question for makers and performers of all kinds, from actors and dancers to politicians and activists. This question has been answered in many different ways. Audiences have been pampered as well as offended, placed in the dark, all around, in public space, addressed as collective or individually.
This course looks at what can be learned from the answers that have been given to these questions by theatre and dance makers and theorists. Students learn to use these answers for understanding spectatorship in the theatre but also in other forms of art and media (e.g. VR installations, performative games, performances in public space, online performance) Special attention will be paid to the relationship between performance and media and how in both we can observe a general transformation ‘from audience to participant’. We will look at examples of performances (in theatre, media and public space) and analyse them for how they are constructed and composed, how they address their audiences via this composition, how they have incorporated forms and structures from other media and how they often present a critical reflection on spectatorship in our contemporary society/
This course is part of the specialisation Theatre and dance and the specialisation Participatory Cultures: Civic Engagement in Media and Performance. It builds on knowledge and skills introduced and trained in the core profiles (basispakketten) 1 and 2 of Media and Culture. In this specialisation students deepen their historical and theoretical knowledge of theatre and dance and train academic skills that are specific to the field, such as particular research methods and professional skills.
LAS and TCS students who follow this course as part of the core curriculum of their major, need to complete a compulsory preparation course/assignment. See for more information: https://tcs.sites.uu.nl/
