The following  are the research questions that we have for our project, keeping in mind our GOALS of the research for Exploring Interactive Theatre. We have formulated these questions that fit our goals and our research.

1.1  What is interactive theater?

1.2.1  How is the performance of the actors influenced by the interactive parts?
How hard/easy is it to learn how to use it? Are they comfortable with the usage? Are there any disturbances between different parts? Do they have any tips, how to improve it?

1.2.2  How did the cooperation between designers and technicians influence the creative output? What kind of problems appeared? Was there anything that made working together harder
or easier?

1.2.3  Does the audience realize the interactive parts?
Are they able to get the interaction? Are they interested in how it works? Do they like it?
Does the audience get the whole concept of the play?

2.1  Are there conventional techniques that could be an alternative solution for the interactive parts?
Where does conventional theater end and interactive theater start? What are the differences,
what are the similarities between conventional and interactive theatre?

2.2  What is the motivation behind putting interactive props/costumes on stage?
What is the biggest advantage of using interactive technologies in that theater play? Is the usage of interactive parts enhancing the outcome of the play?

2.3  What do actors/audience/creators expect when they take part in an interactive theater play?
Where the interactive parts distracting or did the actors/audience like it?
