no reality now

No Reality Now takes VR out of the solitary headset: several viewers share the same physical space and the same fiction, guided by sound, movement and the presence of other bodies.

The writing focuses on the place of the spectator: how to make them an actor of the dramaturgy without giving them a controller, through attention and movement alone.

Presented at festivals and revisited as a workshop at the Hong Kong Arts Festival.

Theatre x dance x VR — 40 min. A piece that brings together dance on stage and virtual reality, inviting us into an afterlife — inaccessible, unfathomable, unintelligible, like the death it sets out to stage.

Betting on how virtual reality and live performance complete each other, the two artists offer two simultaneous versions, and the 100 spectators are free to move between them.
