Description
Palgrave MacMillan Entracte Performing Publics Pervasive Media and Architecture 2015 Edition by J. Geiger
Generally taking place in front of closed curtains during set changes between acts, the entr'acte delivers a fleeting new purpose and event to the otherwise sometimes inert space between stage and pit. This collection employs the entr'acte as a model for conceptualizing emerging formations of publics and of public space.
