How to present without an auditorium.  

Present in a simulation of the subject.

Valerie Hill tells about Research Row 

in the digital Dickens Project (excerpts).

You could even simulate the auditorium if you feel nostalgic.  But with a digital place, you can bring your audience with you.  Even those who are mobility limited.  Walking in a digital place is just a matter of pressing a key.
