Summary/Abstract: In the article I summarize ways of defining theatre and media. I present the diversity in defining and setting the boundaries of the theatre. I briefly discuss the development of media and new technologies. Moreover, I combine the effects of media development with changes in theatre. To sum up I prove that the presence of the actor’s and the viewer’s body is not a condition for the production of a performance.
