Please note: This event ended on 27 January 2023

In this Lunchtime Talk James Turnbull will ask the question, how do you welcome someone to their seat when they aren’t there in person?

Immersive technologies enable realtime, interactive possibilities for theatre. As the performing arts sector develops confidence in sharing work online, we need to develop new approaches for hosting our audiences, facilitating artists and redesigning how we make our work in this new space. So how do you welcome someone to their seat when they aren’t there in person?

The Royal Shakespeare Company have been innovating new ways to engage audiences in the live experience for over a decade. Hear from James Turnbull, Producer - Digital Development on how they are evolving to meet the needs of the audience, and storytellers, of the future.
