This paper uncovers the ways in which Troika Ranch artists, by integrating emerging digital technologies as integral components of live performance, are reshaping dance theatre practices in the twenty-first-century. It begins with an overview of the 2002 Summer Live-Interactive workshop. Next, I explore specific interactive technologies both designed and employed by Troika Ranch artists. I then consider the company’s mission of integrating media and live-action performance and investigate the unique techno/human relationship forged by their works. I examine some of Troika Ranch’s current projects and suggest how their methods/practices might be applied to theatre. Finally, I discuss the future directions of digital dance theatre research and analyze how the use of new technologies are influencing the direction of contemporary performance scholarship
