It’s crazy to think about the possibilities when it comes to immersive theatre. Considering how new it is as a theatrical concept and the few successful long running immersive shows that exist - its an entire world that has barely been explored. The 2019 Denver Immersive Retrospectacle seems like the place to be. The numerous types of immersive experiences that were present, theatrical, escape room, and simply interactive installations show the variety within the theme of “immersive.” I think the tenants of immersive that Andrew Novick defined are intelligent and thoughtful. Definitely things to consider when creating an immersive piece. Novick also goes on to make a strong point. Let something be immersive without giving it that explicit distinction. It’s like if someone wants to be famous so they become an actor. You don’t want to call it immersive and then go about doing so. Make something and if it’s immersive - awesome. If not, that’s okay too.
