The book delves into the multifaceted nature of empathy, highlighting its potential both to connect and mislead. Cummings examines empathy's historical context through various disciplines, revealing how theatre has often emphasized one-sided interpretations. By advocating for a dialogic approach, he argues that empathy can thrive in live interactions, fostering richer exchanges between performers and audiences. This exploration challenges conventional views and aims to redefine how empathy is understood and utilized in artistic contexts.
