An Ark is the first play created for mixed reality. The one-of-a-kind theatrical encounter features the ensemble cast of Ian McKellen (Film: Lord of the Rings, X-Men; Stage: Richard III, Amadeus), Golda Rosheuvel (Bridgerton, Not Your Superwoman), Arinzé Kene (Misty, The Shed; Get Up, Stand Up!), and Rosie Sheehy (Machinal, Old Vic).

The renowned actors appear in front of you as you look through mixed reality glasses, allowing them to perform and speak directly to you. In this radically intimate reimagining of live theater, they draw you as an audience into a deeply personal exploration of what it means to live, to grieve, and to connect.

SYNOPSIS:

From quiet sorrows to breathtaking beauty, the mystery of human experience unfolds before you. In An Ark, four guides shepherd you into an understanding of the human condition, encompassing the joy of first love and the inevitability of death.
