Aleph-naught is a performative text that creatively harnesses Dinesh's findings from three of her previous works: Memos from a Theatre Lab: Exploring What Immersive Theatre ""Does"", Memos from a Theatre Lab: Spaces, Relationships, & Immersive Theatre, and Memos from a Theatre Lab: Immersive Theatre & Time.

As the latest endeavour in Dinesh's ongoing commitment to creating socially relevant, immersive, theatrical works, this book contains ""A Play"" and ""A Plan"" a script that can be staged; a plan for how to work with participants (performers and spectators) in the realisation of that script. By using one specific play to address larger questions around staging Immersive Theatre, Aleph-naught is a unique resource for practitioners and researchers who are committed to immersive forms of socially relevant theatre praxis.
