“沉浸式”的消费与革新:当代戏剧观演关系批判

The Consumption and Innovation of Immersiveness:A Critique on Actor-Spectatorship of Contemporary Theatre

随着技术手段的革新和演出形式的发展,当代戏剧逐渐产生了与传统理念、传统习惯有明显差异的新观演关系。通过对近年兴起的"环境戏剧""沉浸式戏剧""特定场地戏剧"等新戏剧观演形式进行分析、梳理,检视其中代表性的戏剧作品和演出设计,可以发现在当代戏剧的新观演形态与消费文化的兴起之间存在着密切联系。重新审视戏剧活动的商业性和文化消费本质在文化产业结构中的地位,有助于在全球化文化生产语境下探索戏剧的健康定位,形成对消费主义的批判力量。

With the technical innovation and the development of performing forms,contemporary theatre has gradually generated new forms of actor-spectator relationship,which is significantly different from the conventional concepts and spectator habits.By classifying and analyzing those emerging new forms,such as environmental theatre,immersive theatre,and site-specific theatre,together with several cases studies on representative theatre works and performance designs,it is revealed that those new forms are closely related to the rise of consumerism.Through interrogating consumerism within theatre practice in the cultural industry,light can be shed on new methods to criticize consumerism in theatre in the context of global cultural production.
