Australian theatre makers such as Perth's The Last Great Hunt are blending theatre and cinema to make inventive new work

There is a moment in Anna Breckon and Nat Randall's play Set Piece when Holly walks into the audience's view wearing a glass strap-on dildo. Randall adds: "Often what we find is that frame is completely different to what the live moment is … There's this tension between emotional states that can be in sync or totally not." By incorporating live video in theatre, you're doing both – and, in King's words, "intentionally refracting the audience's gaze". "The worst live video in theatre is just film, and the audience is just watching something that has been meticulously staged for the camera," King says. "The deployment of live video and using multiple cameras opened up a way of telling stories that could allow an audience to look at them from multiple perspectives," he told ABC TV's Art Works.
