We saw lots of experimentation by theater groups this last year streaming their performances live—doing shows with actors Zooming in—but that wasn’t enough for Brendan Bradley. He designed a virtual reality theater where performers and the audience could feel like they’re together in the same room, even though they’re actually at home wearing a virtual reality headset. Bradley is the founder of the Brendan Bradley Integrative Technology Lab at New York University. (Originally aired June 3rd, 2021)
