"A timely examination of the survival instinct of practitioners and audiences engaged in theatre-making and theatre-going in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. This book explores the paradoxical tension that has emerged between a disenchantment with digital technologies and the increasing reliance on online modes of practice. It identifies blindspots and ethical dilemmas that the shift to online and technologized practices may be engendering by assessing performances from emerging theatre-makers and participatory online theatre productions. Performances discussed include Thaddeus Phillips' Zoom Motel, Handle with Care and Tania El Khoury's As Far As Isolation Goes"-- Provided by publisher.
