Direct Audience Address with Signy Lynch

This working group was our first partnered with Jackman Humanities. Not only did we catch up from summer adbentures and welcome new guests and members, but we discussed our plans for the upcoming year, including our special issue of Performance Matters. We explored 'Postdramatic Spectatorship: Participate or Else' by Rachel Fensham, Head of School of Culture and Communication at the University of Melbourne. Signy Lynch, Ph.D. student at York University led a presentationa and discussion about Direct Audience Address, and the theories and methods around new research in this area.

Presented at the Centre for Drama, Theatre and Performance Studies.
