Abstract

Rebecca Scollen is currently conducting an audience reception study for LaBoite Theatre Company. The primary aim is to expose participants' perceptions of La Boite's productions and discover their attitudes to theatre in general. Initial results have been valuable and it is expected that the complete study may aid the company in its artistic choices for the future. So far the participants are responding positively to the group discussion sessions and their understanding and appreciation of theatre has grown.
