Why might you use 'theatre in the round' as a stage set?
Basically you might use it to let the audience join in ! Although why this shape of stage would be better than any other for audience participation I do not know. In a proscenium setup there is a firm line between what is audience and what is stage. In theatre in the round, that line is obliterated because from every vantage point you can see that there is audience on the far side of the players. Rather than trying to create another but separate reality for you to believe in, the stage action is drawn into the audience's reality. That is not a participation issue but a perception issue.
