Redemption Room
The Redemption Room was an on-line immersive thriller/horror/ theatre experience which ran between February and March 2021. It was created by the Secret Theatre Project (an immersive theatre business). The audience for the show were able to access the event via Zoom and decide the fate of six contestants as they compete and seek redemption for their societal crime by voting at certain points through the performance. Audience members were also able to message the contestants as soon as they had purchased a ticket and chat with them in real time during the show (as well as with other audience members) – via the chat function in Zoom. The show used a reality TV show type format and featured contestants / actors from Mumbai, Hong Kong, London, Singapore, Sydney and New York.
