c. audience

Explanation:

Broadly speaking , the audience is a multitude that has gathered to listen to a speech or to witness some kind of cultural representation.

Then, in ancient times greeks formed audience while listening to their rulers, or in the eather they assembled to watch dramas.

The audience is usually passive, in that there is limited interaction with the speaker, but in recent times some other forms of audience assume more active roles in engaging with speaker and giving some feedback. There is an increasing sense of participation in order to enrich the elements of communication between speaker and audience.

In the media, TV talks shows are a great example of this, and also some shows sponsored by entertainment industries.
