Immersion and Participation in Punchdrunk's Theatrical Worlds is a
detailed account of the company's award-winning productions and
their historical context. Examining Punchdrunk's role as pioneers
of immersive theatre in the UK through a range of their productions
including Sleep No More and The Drowned Man besides theatrical
works such as Faust, The Duchess of Malfi and Kabeiroi, and
cross-platform productions like The Moon Slave, The Borough and The
Oracles, the book presents an original framework for understanding
immersion in theatrical and mixed reality experiences. Central to
the book is a study of how immersive experience is produced in
interaction with physical and digital scenography for participatory
audiences. Through ethnographies of the company, their designers,
actors, producers and audiences, the book interrogates the
relationship between the aesthetics of interaction and the
experience of immersion in Punchdrunk's work. The theoretical
framework that the book introduces affords analyses of material
cultures and the influence of technology on interaction design in
theatre and beyond, and offers a blueprint for next-generation
immersive design and scenography for interactive multimedia
environments.
