dc.description.abstractIn Nostrovia: Methods in Creating Immersive Theatre for Audiences, I explore the process and politics of creating an immersive dance theatre experience. Nostrovia was performed January 16th -18th 2020 at The Peacock Public House and reimagines the historical narrative of the Romanov family. This thesis begins with an overview of participatory movements and presentations that inspired immersive and site specific performances, and then proceeds to summarize the theoretical framework that was used to create this production. Through the use of adaptive narrative, consensual practices and movement shaped for non-dance spaces, I outline the practices and developments that occurred throughout and subsequently following the performances. This thesis is aimed at understanding and analyzing methodologies for guiding and engaging viewers/participants through contemporary dance presentations.
