YouTube Theatre

This website is designed as a supportive academic reference for those interested in, and studying, the concepts and impacts of digital network cultures on performing arts and performance literature.

​

Particular attention is given to the development of theatre on the small screen. The use of PCs, mobile phones, and tablets potentially herald a change in the way that we view the performing arts.  This site is dedicated to direct examples of the movement the stage from a physical entity to modern mini-screens engaged with through digital platforms such as YouTube.

​

This website is an amalgamation of three projects, posted both as linear website links, and as blog posts to facilitate mobile device use and internet searches.

​
