360-degree 3D VR immersive experience: a surprising project in which the spectators find themselves unexpectedly centre stage, totally surrounded by the action, in an experience featuring large, moving machinery and spectacular effects, creating a VR show with great emotional impact. 

This show is much more than just a story about princesses and heroes. The traditional fairytale imagery, which we are used to seeing in all its saccharine mawkishness, is thrown into disorder, to the point that the boundaries between Good and Evil become blurred. Well-known stories, legends and fairytales from the literary traditions of great authors, including Lewis Carroll, the Brothers GrimmJohann Karl August Musäus and Hans Christian Andersen, have been reinterpreted in a noir atmosphere with a “bittersweet” air. 

Could Little Red Riding Hood have a dark side? And why can’t a Witch or a Stepmother have a good, sweet-natured or even melancholy side? 

C’ERA UNA VOLTA / a VR experience is a colourful and enchanting revue show, a multidisciplinary work featuring moving scenery and large machinery, water effects and technological influences, which all work together to create an evocative experience for the audience.

It is a contemporary work that shakes up old traditions by stripping away the “sugar-coated” essence of the fairy tale, creating a highly digital technological experience, which seamlessly blends together and blurs the edges between LIVE performance and VIRTUAL reality. 

C’ERA UNA VOLTA / a VR experience: come with us, directly into the heart of the performative experience, into a universe that is sure to be eye-opening.
