Recently in the Scottish Highlands, 260 theatergoers were led up a well-lit, pin-tree-lined concrete path. Their destination? A vacant water plant. The large concrete space had the impersonal feel of an army camp—exactly the atmosphere the producers of Black Watch hoped to reproduce. The play is based on the true story of a Highlands troop sent overseas in 2004.
Essentially, site-specific theater refers to plays produced in places directly relevant to their action. At the Museum Hotel in Wellington, New Zealand, audiences filed into room 217 to watch a tale about the various personalities who had occupied the room over time. " I think people are tired of the same old plays in the same confines of space, " says Paul McLaughlin, who produced Hotel. "Drama happens all around us—at the bus stop, in a supermarket—so we attempted to show how people can interact with the space that surrounds them. "
To be sure, on-scene productions present their own set of challenges. Producers of Black Watch had to scout around London for a location for when the show comes to the British capital. But for many audience members, leaving the comfort of their theater seats makes for a more meaningful experience. "A lot of site-specific work challenges the way you look and think, "says Nick Kaye, a drama professor at the University of Exeter.
Site-specific shows can also satisfy the growing desire for individualized entertainment fueled by on-demand television and the Internet. In Faust, which the London-based theater group Punch-drunk just wrapped up, audience members got to pick what they wanted to see. Housed in an old five-story storehouse in east London, the play featured different settings. Audience members could choose to watch a scene and follow certain actors from location to location. Felix Barrett, the director of Faust, says today’s theatergoers expect more than just the traditional audience-actor relationship. "What I wanted to do was to create a piece where the audience can carve out the night they want to have, and it stays with them. " Creating a strong sense of place goes a long way toward a-chieving that.
We learn from the text that site-specific drama is created to accommodate_______.
