By focusing specifically on the relationship between performer and audience, Talking to the Audience examines what happens when the audience are in the presence of a dramatic figure who knows they are there. It is a book concerned with theatrical illusion; with the pleasures and disturbances of seeing 'characters' produced in the moment of performance.Through analysis of contemporary productions Talking to t 606 $aTheater audiences 606 $aActing 615 0$aTheater audiences. 615 0$aActing. 676 $a792.95 700 $aEscolme$b Bridget$f1964-,$0948747 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825749903321 996 $aTalking to the audience$94099073 997 $aUNINA
