Reviews
"This is a rigorous, innovative piece of scholarship that forgoes conventional wisdom about sound and hearing in favour of a new paradigm of theatrical attendance that demonstrates the complexity of this act, especially in productions that challenge audiences sonically. George Home-Cook articulates thought processes, bodily experiences, and ways of interpreting acoustic phenomena that often go unnoticed or may only be partially understood. This book demonstrates how much there is to learn about, and from, self-reflexive attention to the act of listening in theatre." - Adrian Curtin, University of Exeter, UK , "Without a doubt this book is interesting for practically everyone seriously interested in the relation between theatre and sound. Next to this obvious readership, the re-imagined conceptualization of terms such as atmosphere, scenography, and immersion makes it particularly interesting for theatre and scenography professionals, both scholars and practitioners ... . Home-Cook's study is much more than just a welcome addition; it sparks enormously important discussions and sets a course for future explorations." (Falk Hbner, Journal of Sonic Studies, February, 2017) "George Home-Cook's Theatre and Aural Attention: Stretching Ourselves ... is a must-read for students and academics of all things dramaturgical. It calls for an attention to the invisible and offers an earnest contribution to the quest for a listening beyond dialogue in the atmosphere of the performed." (Salom Voegelin, timeshighereducation.com, December, 2015), "This is a rigorous, innovative piece of scholarship that forgoes conventional wisdom about sound and hearing in favour of a new paradigm of theatrical attendance that demonstrates the complexity of this act, especially in productions that challenge audiences sonically. George Home-Cook articulates thought processes, bodily experiences, and ways of interpreting acoustic phenomena that often go unnoticed or may only be partially understood. This book demonstrates how much there is to learn about, and from, self-reflexive attention to the act of listening in theatre." - Adrian Curtin, University of Exeter, UK ' Theatre and Aural Attention is a landmark study of theatrical listening. It is also a bracing, nuanced account of the spectator's attentional attunements to his or her theatrical environments. Drawing upon the work of contemporary sound designers, the extensive recent scholarship in Sound Studies, and his own phenomenological examination of theatrical listening, George Home-Cook revises deeply-held assumptions about seeing versus hearing, attention versus distraction, theatrical immersion, and the nature of theatrical silence. Its methodology is rigorous and its analysis convincing. As a demonstration of what theatrical phenomenology can accomplish, Theatre and Aural Attention is nothing short of revelatory.' - Stanton B. Garner, Jr., University of Tennessee, USA 'But What does it mean to attend theatre? For George Home-Cook it means to be a 'listener-spectator': theatrical attending consists of an encompassing, multi-sensory, participatory experience. Accordingly, this insightful book proposes a new paradigm of theatrical reception-perception from the perspective of attention. By reconsidering listening not as a passive and detached operation, but as an enactive process and as a specialised mode of attention, it proposes that we understand theatrical experience as a dynamic, intersensorial, inter-subjective, bodily engagement with the affordances of the theatrical environment. Home-Cook develops his argument through a vivid engagement with a number of theatrical events and examples and by paying particular attention to (theatre) sound. Theatre and Aural Attention offers a ground-breaking perspective to many fields of research, including the anthropology of sound and the senses, theatre and aurality, spectator studies, and the aesthetics of atmospheres.' - Tonino Griffero, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy

Synopsis
The question of attention in theatre remains relatively unexplored. In redressing this, Theatre and Aural Attention investigates what it is to attend theatre by means of listening. Focusing on four core aural phenomena in theatre - noise, designed sound, silence, and immersion - George Home-Cook concludes that theatrical listening involves paying attention to atmospheres. Such matters are examined as they have arisen in some of the most sophisticated works of theatre sound design of recent years, including Sound & Fury's Kursk, Romeo Castellucci's Purgatorio, Complicite's Shun-kin and Robert Lepage's Lipsynch. In suggesting how theatre works to direct the audience's aural attention, the book also carries out an important enquiry into radio drama (Beckett's All That Fall, Embers, and Pinter's A Slight Ache). This ground-breaking study will be of interest to drama students, sound theorists, practitioner-researchers, performance philosophers, and to anyone curious to explore what it means to attend theatre., Theatre and Aural Attention investigates what it is to attend theatre by means of listening. Focusing on four core aural phenomena in theatre - noise, designed sound, silence, and immersion - George Home-Cook concludes that theatrical listening involves paying attention to atmospheres.
