Calling All Theater Makers: Let’s Bring the Stage to Virtual Reality (Launch)

Can a virtual stage move you like a live one? We think so, and we’re gathering performers, playwrights, and dreamers to find out.

This breakout session, launching 3D Immersive Arts NM, is part of the larger VR New Mexico meetup in Santa Fe. We’ll imagine how to stage a live immersive theater piece in VR. Think avatar acting, virtual sets, and new ways of breaking the fourth wall.

Prefer to build behind the scenes? The companion session from Spatial Computing runs at the same time, and both groups start with a shared plenary at 2:00 PM.

Come make something impossible.

About this 3-in-1 Event:

This special meetup starts with a shared session hosted by VR New Mexico at 2:00 PM, open to anyone curious about virtual reality. Then at 3:00 PM, we split into two themed breakout groups: 3D Immersive Arts NM explores theater and storytelling in VR, while Spatial Computing dives into the tech behind immersive experiences. Come for one, explore both, or just hang out and see what happens. All meetups are co-located at the same brewery near Santa Fe, so the vibe stays fun, creative, and full of serendipity. There will be no official presentation with slides, just conversation (and maybe handouts). After all, it's a brewery.
