The audience scene in End Of Evangelion


There are clips in EoE that look like this. I wonder where these clips come
from. What are they watching/listening to?

The theater is a shot from one of the screenings of Death and Rebirth. I
vaguely recall someone somewhere identifying which theater it was, but I can't
find the post. This was part of an entire sequence of live-action shots near
the end of the instrumentality portion of "End of Evangelion", the panning
shot of the inside of the theater is both kind of a [4th
wall](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_wall) as well as fitting in with
the motif of the theater within instrumentality. Recall also from the last two
episodes of the TV Series where instrumentality is heavily depicted as part of
a theatrical set, like on a stage. Likewise, in EoE, we have a few shots,
including a sequence in a sandbox, where there are those folding chairs seen
from the end of the TV series.

Another related note is that the ["Death Threats"
sequence](https://wiki.evageeks.org/End_of_Evangelion_Death_Threats) during a
similar live-action portion of instrumentality has some of the letters mention
seeing Death and Rebirth at the theater.
