In addition to immersive theater, in which the audience is immersed right in the middle of the actors' performance, which has developed considerably in recent years, another form of storytelling is making increasing headway. This is interactive theatre, in which the audience plays a very important role in determining the evolution of theplot.
Ininteractive theater , the audience is completely involved in the story, as its successive choices will shape the next stage of the adventure. Whether by show of hands, applause or even remote control or smartphone applications.
The interactive play is never the same from one session to the next, as the various elements (costumes, partners, crucial choices, etc.) are decided during the performance by the spectators of the day. So you can go back and see the show several times, and it's (very) unlikely that you'll see exactly the same thing again. It's an enjoyable exercise for the audience, but one that requires great skill on the part of the performers, who have to know and be able to play out several possible scenarios.
