Abstract

AbstractLive theatrical performance is an ever-evolving art form in which visionary theater makers are incorporating augmented reality (AR) into performances to connect and engage modern audiences. While theater productions are generally limited by the physical environment’s constraints, AR offers a means to significantly expand the types of sets, effects, and stories that can be told. Furthermore, the addition of 3D tracking and interactive projections enables a new performance methodology with exciting new options for theatrical storytelling, educational training, and interactive entertainment. In this chapter, the authors discuss recent inclusions of AR in live performance, present helpful insights for those looking to include AR into productions, and explore the future of AR live theatrical performance.KeywordsTYATheaterLive performanceMotion captureSafetyGame engineKinect
