This cross-disciplinary study draws on both Theatre Studies and Sociology to examine the performance situations of Forced Entertainment's productions 'Bloody Mess' and 'The World in Pictures': What practices do participants employ to create the `space` and ´characters` in a performance? In what ways do the spectators become the actual ´players` in a performance? The book contains numerous interviews with Tim Etchells, founding member and artistic director of Forced Entertainment. In German with some English texts.
Stages an encounter between performance and philosophy to investigate notions of the event, ephemerality and democracy that have perpetually marked the engagement of thought and the theatrical.
