Publication Fall 2025
We are pleased to announce that we are currently working with Routledge publishers to release our Digital Stage research project as a book.
The Digital Stage: Technology and the Future of the Performing Arts will explore the implications and applications of contemporary and emergent digital technologies, from a leadership perspective as well as an audience engagement and an artistic and production perspective.
From this broad survey of the industry, readers will develop a new understanding for the use of digital technologies in the creation, staging, performing, marketing, distributing, and selling of the Performing Arts. It is essential for the sector to explore and proactively consider adoption of new and disruptive technologies, to ensure the long-term viability of Arts institutions and for the sector at large to remain relevant in a rapidly changing context. The Digital Stage seeks to frame a strategic view of the performing arts sector through this lens to understand new practices, identify challenges and barriers ahead, and determine key digital technologies that can enable change.
The book is organized into three Parts, Technology Now, Technology Next, and Technology Impact, and will be of interest to Arts Managers, Production Managers, and leaders in the Performing Arts industry.
