It embeds livecasting in its historical context of 19th-century electrophone technology, assesses its position in contemporary discourse on the meaning of theatre for spectators, in a pre- and post-pandemic moment, and points towards its future. Heidi Liedke navigates between an interdisciplinary range of 20th- and 21st-century theorists from the fields of cultural studies, theatre studies and performance philosophy. Combining lively analyses of recent theatre performances with auto-ethnographic accounts, she turns to 20th-century thinkers such as Walter Benjamin and Bertolt Brecht in order to understand livecasting's position in a continuum of developments taking place on the borders of media, film and performance for the past 100 years. Locating livecasting on the conceptual tripod of spectacle, materiality and engagement, Livecasting in Twenty-First Century British Theatre asks what role audiences and their engagement play in livecasting. These conceptual threads are illustrated by in-depth analyses of recent NT Live shows, such as A Midsummer Night's Dream (2019), Antony and Cleopatra (2018) and Small Island (2019) and complemented by insights from practitioners involved in the making of the livecasts. Finally, livecasting is contextualized within recently emerged forms of Covidian (virtual) theatre during the pandemic in order to offer some thoughts on the future of the genre of theatrical performance"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a National Theatre Live (Great Britain) 650 0 $a Theater $z Great Britain $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Theater $x Technological innovations. $x Technological innovations. 650 0 $a Technology and the arts. 650 7 $a Technology and the arts $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145276 650 7 $a Theater $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01149217 651 7 $a Great Britain $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204623 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240320010454.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3153D874E67F11EE94C7D61345ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
