ABSTRACT This article raises new questions about the meaning of juror participation in a criminal trial. Through an interdisciplinary exploration I not only theorize the position and potentiality of the jury, but I also reflect on the process of working with a theatre director to create work which is both academic research and public theatre performance in equal measure. I challenge the reader to reconsider the current assumptions which equate juror presence in the courtroom to their participation in the trial by drawing on participatory techniques found in Augusto Boal's Forum Theatre and my current collaboration with site-specific theatre company, Grid Iron.

“从存在到参与–陪审员的角色被重新构想。”

摘要本文提出了有关陪审员参与刑事审判的含义的新问题。通过跨学科的探索，我不仅理论化了陪审团的地位和潜力，而且还反思了与剧院导演合作创作作品的过程，该作品既包括学术研究，也包括公共剧院表演。我向读者挑战，重新审视当前的假设，即通过利用奥古斯托·鲍尔（Augusto Boal）的论坛剧院中的参与技术以及我目前与特定地点的剧院公司Grid Iron的合作，将陪审员在法庭上的存在等同于他们参与审判。
