ABOUT ABOUT

Adapted from CoAct Productions' award-winning immersive theatre show, this VR experience has been celebrated at the most prestigious festivals in the world while garnering multiple awards. Now is your opportunity to join us live in Los Angeles at our IRL/VR installation to experience Welcome to Respite for yourself.

As an audience member, you will become part of the show as you journey into a forgotten childhood memory! This psychological drama explores the parts of our mind that both help us and haunt us through the lens of a mental illness called Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), formerly known as multiple personality disorder. 

SPECIAL LOS ANGELES IN-PERSON EVENT: For the first time ever, you can see this show in person, in Los Angeles. With a limited number of tickets, audiences may attend in person at an undisclosed location near Melrose and La Brea. Explore Alex's fort and interactive materials prior to being placed in a VR headset to view this unique experience.  

Audiences from all over the world may attend virtually from the comfort of their own home, as long as they have a Quest 2 or PCVR!

We offer THREE experience types:

IN-PERSON PREMIUM- There is only ONE premium ticket available for each show time. This audience member will be the primary focus of the experience, playing the role of Alex. Participants in this category can expect a high level of interactivity. This ticket has been reserved for those who will be attending in-person in Los Angeles.

IN-PERSON GENERAL- General audiences will serve as passive spectators of Alex's experience, playing the role of the alternate personalities within the personality system. While they will not interact with characters directly, they will be given unique opportunities to interact with and explore the space. This ticket has been reserved for those who will be attending in-person in Los Angeles.

VIRTUAL GENERAL- General audiences will serve as passive spectators of Alex's experience, playing the role of the alternate personalities within the personality system. While they will not interact with characters directly, they will be given unique opportunities to interact with and explore the space. This ticket is for those who have their own VR headset and will be attending from anywhere in the world from the comfort of their home. NOTE: you must own or have access to a Quest 2 or PCVR for this ticket.
