Noah Nelson has made a life of exploring the numerous ways that the audience transcends the proscenium, or stage, that separates them from the experience on the stage or screen. In this delightful and very human conversation, Blake Collier and Matt Ruff dig into the worlds of immersive theater and technology, everything from escape rooms to immersive Shakespeare. Noah breaks down the moving parts of these forms of immersive experience and lets the listener in on the power of acting and storytelling and how these things only make the experience more powerful. We also dig into where Noah sees the most visceral effects of technology in the world and gives us a glimpse at his biggest hopes and fears for the future of immersive technology.
Noah Nelson is the founder of No Proscenium, a publication dedicated to exploring the immersive and experiential arts and a co-founder of LEIA – the League of Experiential & Immersive Artists. He holds a bachelor in Theatre Arts from San Francisco State University. His reporting has been heard on NPR’s All Things Considered and APM’s Marketplace.
