| Summary: | This book offers the first broad-based survey of the way artists, audiences and society at large are making use of social media, and how the emergence of social media platforms that allow two-way interaction between these groups has been held up as a game changer by many in the theatre industry. The first book to analyze aesthetic, critical, audience development, marketing and assessment uptake of social media in the theatre industry in an integrated fashion, 'Theatre, Social Media and Meaning Making' examines examples from the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe and Australasia to provide a snapshot of this emerging niche within networked, telematic, immersive and participatory theatre production and reception practices. A vital new resource for the field, this book will appeal to scholars, students and industry practitioners alike. |
