The differences between a performance on site and within an auditorium are constantly discussed throughout Pearson’s introduction. This exceptional detail allowed me to grasp a solid hold of the key dissimilarities between these types of theatre. A key instance of this is Pearson’s list comparing the aspects of a performance of site and that within an auditorium. For example, Pearson states that ‘In the auditorium the scene is singular’ (Pearson, 2010, p.17) whereas ‘At site, the prospect is complex unless otherwise framed’ (Pearson, 2010, p.17).

In relation to the brief given to us regarding our topic of performance, I feel that the concept of liberation and pervasive media is quite thought provoking for developing a piece on the high street. This is because the vast ideas and techniques which can be utilised for this type of performance are limitless, but it is also a huge challenge to effectively pull it off.
