The Under Presents: Tempest

In this groundbreaking VR reimagining of the Shakespeare play, an actor sheltering in place in the Hollywood hills describes how they were due to play Prospero in a stage production of The Tempest until COVID-19 hit, and takes the audience through their dreams of what might have been. As the experience progresses, the lines between real and virtual and truth and fiction blur as audience members are "cast" as Prospero's spirits to realize an interactive, virtual version of the story. Audience members will be networked into intimate groups of 6-8 per actor. With personal variations among each actor, and new groups of participants at each showtime, no two performances of The Under Presents: Tempest will be the same.
