Emperor 101 by The Performance Corporation from Dublin, Ireland
A live performance from Ireland in Virtual Reality for Boca del Lupo's LivePerformance360

Emperor 101 immerses the audience in an alternate world that reflects the mind and motivations of a conspiracy theorist. In a time when the very notion of truth or facts is called into question, the innovative use of VR reflects the multiple realities or bubbles we live in. The piece riffs on influences from ancient mythology to Alice in Wonderland, and asks if rejection of the mainstream is a product of fear, or the ultimate act of self-empowerment in a complex world.

The audience is led through a series of interactive environments. Here they experience live interaction with performer avatars. The story explores the inner life of a high profile conspiracy theorist as she struggles with a personal tragedy that has turned the world upside down.

Audience members arrive at the Fishbowl, put on a Boca del Lupo VR Headset, and then watch the live performance in VR.

Limited number of tickets available per performance.

Online ticket sales will end 30 mins before the show starts.
