In many of these works the concept of who is the performer and who is the spectator emerge. What is the performance and the event, what is on stage, what is backstage, what is rehearsal and what is the final performance? The viewer is both part of the performance and a performer in the action, but also a spectator who can stand back and claim to be innocent of the activities. Using this metaphor evidences the fact that we are all part of the action, we are all responsible, we have roles, and we can act. We can change the next performance. We can applaud, we can be the claque – the paid supporters, or we can be the hecklers – those who criticise. We can be author, director or actor, ticket holders or free loaders.
