Gumball Dreams: Live Theatre in VR
Deirdre V. Lyons, Christopher Lane Davis, Stephen Butchko, Whitton Anne Frank, Brian Tull, Braden Roy · 2023
Since 2020 Ferryman Collective has been pushing the boundaries of what is possible in theater by using VR technology to give audiences the ability to become a part of the story in a fully immersive way. VR theatre offers the feeling of embodiment and immersion that closely mimics the feeling of going to a theater in person, with the added interactivity of gaming, and the cinematic qualities of film. Ferryman Collective productions have been well received at the most prestigious festivals in the world and garnered many awards along the way.
