Lately more often a word "immersive" is being used to describe a production. So performing very close to the audience is an immersive production? I have seen many productions at a small theatre that I felt like I was a secret witness or being a fly on the wall in a show, but I never thought it was an immersive production nor the show itself promoted that way because it's a norm for a small theatre to produce a show like that (because of the physical limitation of the theatre).

So what's the difference in this case? Is that the stage is so small and the cast is large, they perform very close to the audience all the time?
