Di Benedetto considers theatrical practice through the lens of
contemporary neuroscientific discoveries in this provoking study,
which lays the foundation for considering the physiological basis
of the power of theatre practice to affect human behavior. He
presents a basic summary of the ways that the senses function in
relation to cognitive science and physiology, offering an overview
of dominant trends of discussion on the realm of the senses in
performance. Also presented are examples of how those ideas are
illustrated in recent theatrical presentations, and how the
different senses form the structure of a theatrical event. Di
Benedetto concludes by suggesting the possible implications these
neuroscientific ideas have upon our understanding of theatrical
composition, audience response, and the generation of meaning.
