Summary: IT explores the position of the object in contemporary performance. What happens when the object is no longer dealt with as a reference point in the multi-layered language of theatre? What if the object takes centre stage, or even better, becomes the stage itself? Who is the spectator the moment you become aware of IT staring back at you?

Looking at the object as an auronomous actor in today's performance practice, IT opens a philosophical, critical and playful field of references.

The texts and images in this book refer to the work of performance makers Lilia Mestre, Joanna Bailie and Christoph Ragg, Laurent Liefooghe and Sanja Mitrovic.
