When reading Pervasive Games, several questions popped into my head. One of the main questions that came to mind when reading Pervasive Games was  “Is it morally right, even through performance, to perform around or use people without them knowing?”. I find it interesting to read how far these men went. To the point where he was terrifying passers by “because they were not aware that he was a performer; whereas the audience within the National Theatre was.” (Tapper, n.d.) This seems a very immoral thing to do to the public, as if it is done too convincingly, it could leave the audience with a permanent terror or worse it could hurt them mentally. However I do think it has a very big impact, bigger than a performance which members of the public know is happening. It is also easier to catch real expressions of emotion when the audience is not expecting it.

Even though this seems immoral in ways, I think it could be very expressive if done right.
