The East Coast based interactive comedy series returns to Los Angeles with an all new show to take us back to the Land of Dreams.
Read our review of their previous show, Bar of Dreams Adventure Series: Red.
Press Release Follows
Audience members are invited to experience the Bar of Dreams: Los Angeles, an intimate and absurd immersive comedy. After drifting away into the dreams of a peculiar bartender, four participants find themselves at the whim of his unconscious mind. In this two-hour surreal experience, prepare for delicious drinks, intimate one-on-ones, and hilarious shenanigans — all with a dose of childhood nostalgia!
WARNING
The Bar of Dream Elixir is highly addictive. Side effects may include drowsiness, temporary dissociative disorder and delusions, and enhanced cognitive function.
“Dreams are where we bring things together in fresh, often startling ways, drawing on knowledge from the past, the present, the possible. Dreams may help us find new patterns and create combinations that break through well-worn ruts.”
– Robert Stickgold, Harvard Professor of Psychiatry
“Don’t let your dreams be dreams.” — Shia LaBeouf
BIOS:
Jonathan Pedigo and Alex Leff are co-creators and co-stars of Bar of Dreams.
Jonathan Pedigo is an experience designer and software engineer. Before discovering immersive theater, Jonathan dropped out of college to open a hot dog stand. He built an alternate reality game to advertise the stand and it caught the attention of Nickelodeon who offered him a job. His second parody alternate reality game caught the attention of Lionsgate who threatened to sue him for making fun of the Hunger Games.
Alex Leff is a comedian and independent filmmaker. His 2015 documentary on three front-line communities’ fight against the Keystone XL pipeline, In The Path of Resistance, was featured by RT for an international broadcast. His current documentary, Now and Again, recreates his grandfather’s 1945 bike adventure to find the memories Grandpa Mel lost to Alzheimer’s.
