The Waiting Room is an immersive interaction experience that is exactly what it claims to be. Audience will arrive, check in with the host, and fill out the necessary paperwork. Once paperwork has been completed they will receive a number and a pair of headphones and then wait. While waiting they can listen to the hold line, tune in to 94.4 WAIT FM, or check in with our sponsors. Space in the Waiting Room is limited and having your number called is rare, but the only way to know if you will qualify is to get a ticket and grab a number. Thirty will wait. Five will be called. Will it be you?

About Phoenix Tears Productions

At Phoenix Tears Productions we make weird theater. We put headphones on and perform audio dramas (immersive audio landscapes) by having audiences move around outside and follow physical actors through the story. We create murder mysteries populated by ghosts. We devise zoom based immersion for the pandemic ridden world. We perform our shows at Fringe festivals, Dragonfly Studio 129, and online. Our most recent works include Stardust Kingdom (2016), The War (2019), Recovery: a zoom based immersive show (August 29th & 30th 2020), and Infected: a horror audio drama (October 2020)
