Summary/Abstract: Using virtual images on the stage is commonplace in contemporary performing arts. A glance at the twentieth century shows that ever since virtual images became available, they have been quickly integrated in performing art works, due to their flexibility and the richness of functions. An analysis of the basic reference points in the use of virtual images, both in Europe and in the USA, provides a background for understanding the theatre makers’ fascination towards this discourse.
