Dionysus and the Mighty Mouse: 4: The God in the Machine

on BBC Radio 3

Rve programmes in which Michael Kustow asks if live theatre will survive in a world being reshaped by the internet and the remote control, and what we would lose if it did not.

Little more than a century ago, machinery - in the shape of electric light - entered the theatre. Michael Kustow asks how theatre is shaping up to the new wave of digital technology, image manipulation and time-shift.
Robert Lepage, master of multimedia theatre, says theatre must find new forms - as painting did when faced with photography.
