Dr Ben Fletcher-Watson: Relaxing the rules: theatre and performance for non-traditional audiences
Relaxed performances cater for spectators from babies to people with dementia, as well as the autistic theatregoers for whom they were first created. This talk explores the history of the relaxed movement, the digital technologies enhancing performance for non-traditional audiences, and new debates and tensions within the field.
