Immersive and spatial computing offer new possibilities to experience real stage events from home. We present a technical concept for experiencing theater performances using virtual reality headsets. For this purpose, we fuse a virtual theater model with real stage content of a theater performance. Two approaches are used: a stereoscopic video recording and a light field. In the virtual theater space, the integration of a multi-player framework enables the shared experience of locally distant people who can interact with each other in a natural way via avatars.
