The Great Reformatting. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
… The connecting thread across these themes is an enriched form of interaction: a kinetic recalibration of the audience’s central nervous system, shifting its primary mode of engagement with an artwork from contemplation to interaction. Even the Zoom play (which may seem less interactive than live theater) gives each viewer the ability to adjust the performance’s volume and screen size. In 2020, the onus is on the work of art to engage its audience—to seduce its spectators—not on the audience members to become sophisticated enough to appreciate the art.
Interaction doesn't do it for me. I go to the theater to see actors perform, not to mix with them.
