The Kaimera Lab was a unique opportunity for creative people to come together and delve into the processes of creating, producing and presenting new forms of live performance, particularly focusing on work that is immersive, participatory, site-specific and interdisciplinary.

Learning objectives included: ​​

Essentials of immersive performance

Approach to the creation of site-specific work

Dramaturgy for immersive, participatory, site-specific performance

Engaging audiences in an immersive setting

Exploration of acting and performing skills necessary for participatory, immersive work

Participants had the opportunity to collaborate with one another and experiment with these challenging forms by creating and presenting original immersive experiences of their own. 

The Kaimera Lab culminated with a final performance that permitted participants to explore all that they learned while presenting their work to residents in the area where the Kaimera Lab took place.
