To illustrate this, the monograph investigates key aspects such as ‘ephemerality’, ‘co-presence’, ‘unpredictability’, ‘interaction’ and ‘realistic representation’ and highlights their significance for re-evaluating received notions of liveness. The analysis is based on productions by Gob Squad, Forkbeard Fantasy, Station House Opera, Proto-type Theater, Tim Etchells and Mary Oliver. In their playful approaches these practitioners predominantly present such media combination as a means of cross-fertilisation rather than as an antagonism between liveness and mediatisation. \n                \n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                                 \n                \n                \u003cp\u003e\n                                        Combining an original theoretical approach with an in-depth analysis of the selected productions, this study will appeal to scholars and practitioners of theatre and performance as well as to those researching intermedial phenomena.\n                    \n                    \u003cbr\u003e\n                                    \n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783110345902\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIntermedial Challenges in Contemporary British Theatre and Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9783110345902","offer_id":40570892812381,"sku":"9783110345902","price":134.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/6e32cde5-f574-45ad-a806-638e4984b5ef.jpg?v=1778043950","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/liveness-on-stage-von-claudia-georgi","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
