Hi Maria, I'm more familiar with this working the other way around; applying theatrical principles to interface design. Brenda Laurel's _Computers as Theater_ comes to mind:
http://www.amazon.com/Computers-as-Theatre-Brenda-Laurel/dp/0201550601 Many human-machine interaction principles are derived from older social interaction principles, so you could work back up the chain and consider how to apply something like Erving Goffman's interaction framework of 1) Initiation, 2) Maintenance and 3) Leavetaking to a theatrical performance, though theater is a more mature field and the principles wouldn't exactly come as a shock. I'd be interested in hearing about how you incorporated the principles in your previous show. // jeff . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
