From online dance, pavement performances of plays back to the part played by audiences in Greek theatres and Shakespeare's Globe - how is performance adapting in the Covid era and how are we rethinking what an audience is? Shahidha Bari hosts a discussion. Kwame Kwei-Armah directs the Young Vic, Kirsty Sedgman from the University of Bristol looks at theatre from Ancient Greece on; Lucy Weir teaches on dance at the University of Edinburgh and is a 成人快手/AHRC New Generation Thinker and Ted Hodgkinson programmes literary events at Southbank Centre in London.
