I found learning about 'Twitter Plays' to be a very interesting topic to study on. With the fast pace and 'to-go' sort of world we live in, everyone expects the convience that they can basically have at their hands. With this form of theatre available at anyone's fingertips at any moment that they desire, it is certainly defying the odds of 'theatre' as we know it. In the technologically thriving world we live in, I can only imagine that this sort of interactive 'at your hand/choice' theatre will only continue to take off. 

 

With this new world of twitter plays, artists are given more and more different opportunities to perform. I feel that artists will soon include more technological elements and audience interactions within their pieces. I believe that we will continue to see more and and more of twitter plays and durationals which put us in the 'right here, right now'. With these sort of plays, you are set in the exact moment. The exact time is even posted next to each 'tweet'. I find this whole side if theatre quite interesting and cannot wait to see it take off. I believe this will open up the interests of more people to 'theatre' itself.
