To Be With Hamlet

Project Overview

To Be With Hamlet is a live theatre performance in Virtual Reality that allows anybody anywhere to have an intimate experience with Hamlet, Shakespeare's dramatic masterpiece. The experience enables audiences to walk the battlements of Elsinore Castle with Hamlet as he confronts the ghost of his murdered father. By utilizing cutting-edge multi-user Virtual Reality technology, the production also enables participants to see their fellow audience members in virtual space in real-time, creating a virtual immersive theatre experience like no other.

Premiered at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival.

My Role

As To Be With Hamlet's Director of Communications, I helped generate funding and excitement for the project by creating and managing the project's website, blog, print materials, development documentaries, and social media platforms. You can see each of these by pressing on the word that describes them. I also contributed to major discussions on the company's business strategy and creative direction. The company's title, for example, was suggested by me. I have not been with the company for a while, so some of the newer posts on its social media channels were not created by me.
