dc.description.abstractThis paper goes through the history and recent development of Theatrical Intimacy Direction to provide context for the necessity of this work, seeking to answer the question: why does Theatrical Intimacy Direction make Theatre better? By looking at the development of Intimacy Direction, where it arose from and how it has shifted the culture in theatre thus far, it demonstrates how it can lead not just to better intimacy in performance but also help society reshape its views on sex, intimacy and consent.
