An overview of my talk on UX Theatre, which can be delivered as a full talk or a poster presentation. UX Theatre is a term I coined to describe those projects that pay lip service to user-centered design. In my talk, I explore the theme of UX Theatre: its causes, its symptoms and what we can do about it as UXers.
