But for a regional theatre production to hit 100 shows is kind of a big deal. Like, there&#8217;s Broadway. And then there&#8217;s Silos Studio #213.<\/p>\n<p>I am indebted to immersive theatre for this gift. With small audiences and a memorable, active experience driving word of mouth from 0 to 60, I am living in Houston what most actors can only dream of: performing in a long-running show. How cool is that? And I&#8217;m even being paid <em>from ticket sales<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some things I&#8217;ve learned along the way, both from the immersive theatre and the escape room sides of my brain.<\/p>\n<h5>100 IMMERSivE THEATRE SHOWS LATER&#8230;<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>There&#8217;s nothing like total confidence inside a show. Most plays I&#8217;ve done spend about 3 weeks in rehearsals for 16 performances\u2014it&#8217;s <em>fast<\/em>. There&#8217;s all sorts of riches I can pay attention to when the routine of the performance comes naturally.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;d think I&#8217;d have some set line readings by now. But every audience inspires new impulses, and every night I have new insight. And this ain&#8217;t even Shakespeare.<\/li>\n<li>Performing doesn&#8217;t get old when your scene partner is brand-new, wide-eyed, and excited every time. I can&#8217;t speak to what it would be like to be stuck inside 100 shows of <em>Sunday in the Park with George <\/em>(my favorite musical), but I&#8217;m always eager for my next immersive show. It really is different every time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_466\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-466\" style=\"width: 888px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"466\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.immersology.com\/100-seances-later\/screen-shot-2017-08-05-at-12-04-00-am\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?fit=888%2C554&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"888,554\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Screen Shot 2017-08-05 at 12.04.00 AM\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?fit=300%2C187&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?fit=640%2C399&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"wp-image-466 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?resize=640%2C399&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?w=888&amp;ssl=1 888w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?resize=300%2C187&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.immersology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/Screen-Shot-2017-08-05-at-12.04.00-AM.png?resize=768%2C479&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-466\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">So many possibilities&#8230; (A blank canvas in Sunday in the Park with George)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li>The reality of the moment is holier than the script. When in conflict, let reality win.<\/li>\n<li>Every audience is perfect\u2014whatever they give you is their truth. Respond to it.<\/li>\n<li>Even if they avoid eye contact, even if they run away from you, <em><strong>don&#8217;t take it personally<\/strong><\/em><strong>. <\/strong>That&#8217;s just them. Work with what happens.<\/li>\n<li>It is so, so easy to fall in love in immersive theatre. I knew that was true from one side, but it&#8217;s true for the performer, too. There&#8217;s something in this work that accelerates intimacy and reveals souls. It&#8217;s magic.<\/li>\n<li>If <a href=\"https:\/\/strangebirdimmersive.com\/immersology\/meisner-for-the-immersive-actor\/\">Meisner theory excites you<\/a>, get thee to an immersive theatre. That&#8217;s where things will <em>really<\/em> take off.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h5>100 Escape rooms Later&#8230;<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>People respond to things consistently. The behaviors we&#8217;ve seen are all very similar, which means you can successfully design for a particular response. This is great news for every experiential designer. It means you can <strong>iterate<\/strong>\u2014even the slightest adjustment can change behavior. Instance: we have a very interesting box in the room, but lots of folks were missing seeing the key hole, to the point that I had to run a hint. We added a tiny handle on top of the box to suggest that it opens, and now that hint has disappeared. So if people are responding in a way you hate, you can, in fact, fix it.<\/li>\n<li>Paper will last without lamination for at least 90 games. Only laminate it if it would be laminated in the world, please.<\/li>\n<li>People don&#8217;t want to break your things. Desperate players at the ends of their ropes combined with a negligent game master are who break things.<\/li>\n<li>Providing a hint deprives someone of a hero moment. Use only when necessary.<\/li>\n<li>Providing a hint is your best tool for curbing player frustration, keeping the experience fun, and protecting the investment of your room. Use liberally.<\/li>\n<li>Your immersive theatre verisimilitude is your escape room red herring. There are soooo many details I would add if doing so wouldn&#8217;t hurt the game. That sucks. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.immersology.com\/immersive-theatre-escape-room\/\">It&#8217;s hard to do both. <\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>In the current escape room climate,<em> there is nothing you can do as a designer to earn the trust of your players.<\/em><\/strong> Players who are new to escape rooms are our best players: they quickly learn that they can trust the design to make sense. But I can easily identify my experienced player: he checks under every chair, he wants to disassemble framed photographs (instead of looking at them), he has an unhealthy fixation with the one 4-digit combo lock and will plug in any random number he can make up in the room until it opens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve played a few escape rooms before, you know he&#8217;s <em>actually behaving logically<\/em>. I do the same thing when I play. Sometimes the clue trail is deficient or missing, wild guessing works or is even required, and a weird, twisted &#8220;escape room logic&#8221; prevails, where numbers under chairs unlock a treasure chest full of Cardan Grilles in the serial-killer basement.

With any luck, they&#8217;ll leave realizing what a revelation it is to play a game that makes complete sense, and then demand it everywhere else they play. Right? Alternatively, it&#8217;s possible that escape rooms will ruin immersive theatre, creating hordes of people whose learned instinct in immersive environments is to turn over all the furniture instead of engaging with a story.\u00a0 A disconcerting but very real possibility.

It&#8217;s good business. Sure, your audience may not notice that all the antique items feature period-appropriate slotted screws, but they will certainly not be surprised to hear that that&#8217;s what you did.
