Description

Theatre Audiences: A Theory of Production and Reception by Susan Bennett is a comprehensive study of the audience as a cultural phenomenon. This updated edition includes new material, including a revised bibliography and an extra chapter on intercultural theatre.

By examining both theoretical perspectives on spectatorship and the practices of different theatres and their audiences, Bennett offers a nuanced understanding of the complex relationships between performers, spectators, and the theatrical event itself.

This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the cultural significance of theatre and its audience, including students, teachers, practitioners, and scholars of performance studies and semiotics. The new edition provides valuable insights into the evolving nature of spectatorship and the diverse ways in which audiences engage with live performance.
