All of the immersion, all of the time!
Wow, it’s another jam-packed week here on NoPro where we discussed the silent, participatory PLAY experiment in LA, reviewed Start VR’s Awake, and talked all things immersive with Linked Dance Theatre in NYC with our Immersive 5. Plus Noah hosted the wonderful Jon Braver of Delusion on the NoPro podcast. And we have an IRL EI Community meetup coming on Wednesday night in New York City! See you there?
Even more news: we got Ricky Brigante of Inside the Magic to come out of retirement to help us cover Overlook Film Festival with Cara Mandel (which is happening right now). You can follow along with our amazing team’s adventures right now on the NoPro Instagram account.
LA and NYC newsletters come out this weekend. Sign up here if you’re not already on the list.
And here’s what we always say — No Proscenium is a labor of love made possible by our Patreon backers. Join us today! Thank you to ALL of our backers.
We literally can’t do this work without the generous support of readers like you and even $1/month helps a LOT.

And do join the Slack to chat with makers and fans of immersive from all around the world.
ON THE PODCAST THIS WEEK
Every fan of immersive in Los Angeles know the name Jon Braver: he’s the creator of the wildly popular Delusion interactive horror theatre company.
Each instance of Delusion is an event into and of itself, and Jon has been creating his dark wonderland in our reality for years now.
This week Delusion goes virtual, with the cinematic VR version of Delusion: Lies Within debuting at The Overlook Film Festival. We talk with Jon about that, the future of the LIVE Delusion shows, and just about everything else under the sun in this, our first full interview with Jon.
