  1. In this paper, we describe a methodology for determining audience engagement designed specifically for stage performances in a virtual space. We use a combination of galvanic skin response data (GSR), self-reported emotional feedback using the positive and negative affect schedule (PANAS), and a think aloud methodology to assess user reaction to the virtual reality experience. We describe a case study that uses the process to explore the role of immersive viewing of a performance by comparing users’ engagement while watching a virtual dance performances on a monitor vs. using an immersive head mounted display (HMD). Results from the study indicate significant differences between the viewing experiences. The process can serve as a potential tool in the development of a VR storytelling experience.
