Sumario:To cope with the COVID-19 pandemic, the performing arts industry created new formats for delivering content via digital technology in the form of remote performances. This study examined the effect of remote performances on performers' satisfaction through the lens of the technology adoption model. Additionally, it investigated whether the performers’ self-assessment of performance quality mediates the relationship between their technology acceptance and satisfaction. To this end, we collected the data from performers (N = 124) who experienced remote performances in Korea. Results showed that their satisfaction was a function of perceived usefulness and ease of use of the technology. However, the mediation effect by self-assessment was detected only on the relationship between the perceived ease of use and satisfaction. The results of the study suggest that event organizers offer an easy-to-operate technology allowing performers to better engage in remote performances. This also enables performers to self-assess their performances, which will enhance performance quality.
