Description
Theatre and the Visual by Dominic Johnson explores how theatre studies have focused too much on textual analysis, neglecting a more comprehensive understanding of the visual experience. Johnson examines the role of the spectator in the theatre, considering pleasure, difficulty, and spectacle to gain insight into the implications for visual experience. This thought-provoking book challenges readers to think differently about their relationship with the performing arts. By exploring the intersection of theatre and the visual, Johnson offers a nuanced perspective on the ways in which we engage with live performance.
