Sumario:This article focuses on the creation of new audiences as a result of a process based simultaneously on reflection and practice in cultural management. In November 2020, Vi luz y entré was founded in the city of Córdoba, which gave rise to the Club de Espectadorxs for young people between the ages of 18 and 25 who are starting out in the expectation of performing arts. We propose that when it comes to inexperienced spectators, the fact that the process of involvement (Brown, 2017) is shared among peers, allows the experience of expectation to be experienced as a social practice, that the meanings of the aesthetic experience are enhanced and that going to the theater as a cultural practice (Bourdieu, 2012) is incorporated as a habit. Finally, we reflect on whether it is possible to form spectators from a non-pedagogical point of view, based on affective ties and a sense of belonging? And what practices empower and emancipate audiences? These questions are addressed throughout the article in a reflective exercise from the practice of the case, with the aim of systematising the strategies of artistic mediation and audience involvement developed with new performing arts audiences.
