"There is one word for people like you and that word is: audience".
Solely the banal fact that in theatre, in contrast to the other arts, production necessarily takes place in the same time-space as the reception puts the audience into this precarious position. Being somehow responsible for actions witnessed on stage and it is the transitory character of theatre as an event that elevates the audience into a constitutive element. How does that compare to other art-forms
whose audience is more abstract, perhaps more absent from the work, but which are because of this more independent from the spontaneous whims
>of a few individuals? These aspects gain a new quality in a time when the arts are again more more concerned with the political on which politics itself is loosing its grip.
The fifth Summer Academy from August 20-28, 2004 in Frankfurt/Main, poses the questions concerning the audience from two perspectives: with respect to aesthetic practice and with respect to political stance.
