The section titled, Theatre Commodified, provides a premise for the Theatre as Suspended Space from an historical perspective. In the section titled Make them Forget, make then Believe, and Silence them we look into the power of traditional structures within theatre and the promise of the deconstruction of them. Strategic Collapse and finally, The Space of Change takes into various strategies towards Theatre as Suspended Space.
