BALL (2020)

Are you tired of leaving the house to always go to the same club? Are you fed up with repeatedly living a routine you no longer identify with? How many times have you stayed at home discouraged, facing another lonely night? Fear no longer! BALL is the new hit app! BALL offers a range of experiences promising to give you back the vitality you need to overcome the monotony of your days. The solution, just a click away. Try it now!

An immersive performance aiming to recreate a club within a virtual reality environment, the backdrop for the unfolding narratives. Part of the Try Better, Fail Better ‘20 Fest edition, at Teatro Taborda, and the Cycle 2+1 at Teatro Nacional 21, these experimental versions, built in R&D, follow some of these possible narratives, where we test some the elements that will lead to the creation of BALL 3.0 in the future.
