No Proscenium & Everything Immersive This Week is brought to you by:

This week in immersive news: The Independent did a great article around consent in immersive theatre and how that’s taking shape at various theatre companies across the pond; some exciting announcements came out of Augmented World Expo 2018; Charlie Fink did his quarterly round-up of the state of location-based VR; a bunch of shows and workshops came in all over the USA and Canada, including NYC-based Third Rail Projects’ latest; and Hollywood Fringe Festival kicked off with a bang in Los Angeles.

And here at NoPro, we also had a huge piece of news —we’re happy to say that Santa Fe-based arts collective Meow Wolf has stepped up to be the presenting sponsor of No Proscenium! More on that in this week’s podcast and newsletters.

By the way, if you’re in Los Angeles, don’t miss the Hollywood Fringe 2018 Mixer on Thursday, June 7 at 9 PM at Thymele Arts. More details below:

ON THE PODCAST THIS WEEK

Negin Singh has been a lot of things: founder of Cartel Arts Collaborative LA, leader of the Inspiration team at AR pioneers DAQRI, and now she’s the Executive Director of the Santa Monica Pier.

She’s bringing her experience as a producer of immersive and interactive events to one of the biggest travel destinations in all of Southern California, and taking our friends at Think Tank along for the ride. This episode is a barn burner: art, augmented reality, and how theatre kids are stealth taking over the world. Okay. That last one is implied. We don’t say it, but it’s soooo there.

Brought to you by the generous support of Meow Wolf(!!!!) and our amazing Patreon backers.
