Description & Specifications

A practical guide to creating successful immersive theater productions, by an experienced theater creator and professional.

Placing the audience at the heart of a production – not as passive spectators but as active participants – is the driving force behind the extensive work of leading immersive theater companies like Punchdrunk, OneOhOne, and Hobo Theatre. Done correctly, it can create powerful, emotional effects that last well beyond the production.

Creating Worlds offers a step-by-step breakdown of the entire journey toward creating an immersive theater production, covering everything you need to consider, including:

  • Deciding on the type of production you wish to create and the 'mission statement' of your work
  • Understanding and anticipating audience behavior
  • Designing and influencing pathways within the space
  • Balancing interaction with storytelling
  • Giving your audience an active role and navigating the fine line between free will and uncontrolled chaos
  • Managing complex rehearsals and preparing your cast for the unpredictable
  • Extending the audience's experience beyond the performance
  • Creating innovative ideas and tactics for promoting your production

Throughout the book, Jason Warren draws on his own experiences in creating immersive theater works in various styles and settings. Also included is a glossary of key terms and a timeline to make the most of your rehearsal period.

An essential guide for theater creators, artists, students, and teachers who wish to create their own immersive theater, Creating Worlds is also an engaging read for those interested in the inspirations and ideas that fuel the performances they love.
