From the &#8220;Discovery of the Spectator&#8221; (Fischer-Lichte, 1991) to the &#8220;Emancipated Spectator&#8221; (Ranci\u00e8re, 2009) a lot has changed in the possibilities how theatre is addressing its audience. Productions in urban space and the progression of digital cultures not only in the daily life but also in all fields of the performing arts led to new paradigms in the way shows are experienced and analyzed. The use of space and dramaturgy and the question of how the spectators are included in the performativity of the theatre event in some contemporary theatre productions changed not only the way theatre is produced but obviously has had a great impact on the experience itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Within this change there exists also a major shift of the concept of dramaturgy: From an architecture of a textual structure to an enhancement of the work in the field of theatre to mode of being a spectator. Does the audience then lose its critical distance to the piece of work it is looking at? How could \u201cproviding an experience\u201d not only be an unpolitical event but produce new perspectives?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>This lecture aims to look at that change of concept and its change of loci as a symptom for many aesthetic phenomena and a reordering of the \u201caesthetic regimes\u201d (Ranci\u00e8re). With the help of some examples of the most recent productions of Rimini Protokoll it will rethink the concept of dramaturgy and reconstruct a different way of how it is produced. With a special focus on the immersivity of these productions it will discuss the pro and cons of formats that asks for co-producing spectators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bmolab.artsci.utoronto.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Schipper_Immanuel-2-732x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3091\" width=\"271\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bmolab.artsci.utoronto.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Schipper_Immanuel-2-732x1024.jpg 732w, https:\/\/bmolab.artsci.utoronto.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Schipper_Immanuel-2-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/bmolab.artsci.utoronto.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Schipper_Immanuel-2-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bmolab.artsci.utoronto.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Schipper_Immanuel-2.jpg 926w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 271px) 100vw, 271px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Imanuel Schipper<\/strong> is a senior lecturer for Contemporary Performance &amp; Dramaturgy at the Theatre Academy\/Uniarts Helsinki and a scholar for Dramaturgy, Cultural and Performance Studies at the CityScienceLab at HafenCity University Hamburg.
