Summary

Tandem Dances: Choreographing Immersive Performance proposes dance and choreography as frames through which to examine immersive theater.

While dance is integral to so much immersive theatre, its contribution remains relatively covert. Ritter has written a much-needed book to work through the production and reception of choreography within this contemporary performance form.
