SHOWING WITHOUT GOING

Risk in performance

What makes live performance compelling, what draws an audience in, is often linked to a performer 'at risk' in some way (not necessarily physically). 

If the artist / performer is absent, what happens to that element of risk? In what ways can it be felt / transferred from afar, or even over time? 

If someone else takes on that risk (audience member, delegated performer etc), how can that be acknowledged?
