Abstract Details

2020, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Theatre.
This M.A. thesis project examines the intersection between virtual reality and theatrical performance. In this study, "liveness" can be understood as the responsiveness of a digital environment to the inputs of the viewer in addition to the sharing of a spatial and temporal continuum between a performer and a viewer. This project will examine two virtual-reality adaptations of Shakespeare's stage play Hamlet: Hamlet 360: Thy Father's Spirit and To Be with Hamlet. It will also examine performer-viewer relationships in two immersive virtual-reality theatre performances: Chained: A Victorian Nightmare, and Elevator #7.
