"The thing that probably interests me most about it is that they’re never pretending the audience isn’t there, that the audience is a passive spectator. They want to engage the audience, to pull them out of themselves for a minute or two, or ninety, and get them to really encounter what they’re seeing. It’s a conversation. Even if the audience isn’t speaking, they’re actively watching, thinking, and responding. It’s not the dreaded “audience participation” but the fourth wall is definitely a creeky old anachronism best shoved off to the side."
