Summary/Abstract: In theaters in America there is no total darkness and, before the performance, the announcer asks you not only to remember to turn off your mobile phone, but also to locate the nearest emergency exit. It’s not a polite way to advise the audience to be discreet about leaving the hall during the performance. It's an urban ritual that defines a society in which the spectator is the most important element of the artistic act.
