As theatres struggle to recover from the pandemic and cost of living crisis, Dundee Rep has taken a bold move to make their work more accessible by embracing virtual reality
And now there is a unique chance to find out what it was like to be on the receiving end of one of his fiery tirades – from the safety of your own armchair.
It is very much a passion project for the pair whose main aims are to help venues and production companies recover, as well as share the theatre experience with those who may be unable to see a live show. “However we wanted to introduce folk to the joy of this gentle, accessible yet immersive VR experience – one that brings you right into the theatre space without actually being there. And while many people think VR is just for gamers or the totally tech-savvy, Neon8’s VR work for theatre does not require you to be up on your feet or taking part – nor do you need a dedicated VR headset to view it.”
“With this they can do something on their phone with a dummy headset and find out if they really like it.”
