As our private and public experiences and our work and entertainment are reshaped by the internet and the remote control, Michael Kustow asks if live theatre will survive and what we would lose if it did not. In the digital age ahead, will Dionysus, god of theatre and wine, stand up to the mighty computer mouse?
In the third of five programmes,
Audience and Society, Kustow looks at the social pressures on theatre, and at theatre as a model of living together. Are global entertainment, political neglect, media fashion and Puritanism driving theatre back to the margins? A tap-dance history of black America on Broadway illustrates that all is not lost.
With Sir Peter Hall , George Woolfe , Alan Ayckbourn and Dragan Klaic.

Arditti Quartet, Nash Ensemble , conductor Andrea Quinn

A concert and interview with Dave Holland
, recorded at Ronnie Scott 's club in London earlier this month.
Plus a profile of Kamau Daaood , who has seen the jazz poetry fashion come and go.
