“Don't panic Don't be scared. This must feel strange to you. It felt strange to me...” —An Ark An Ark is a lyrical meditation on the human condition, traversing the span of a lifetime in just 47 immersive, affecting minutes. From the wonder of childhood and the joy of first love to the complexities of parenting and the inevitability of death, the play invites audiences into a deeply personal exploration of what it means to live, to grieve, and to connect. Starring Ian McKellen, Golda Rosheuvel, Arinzé Kene, and Rosie Sheehy, intimate—where the ensemble of actors appear in a headset to speak directly to each audience member. Though the actors will not be physically present, this radical reimagining of live theater is made possible by the magic of mixed reality.
