Layered Reality Experiences
The Gunpowder Plot follows SOMNAI and Jeff Wayne's The War of The Worlds: The Immersive Experience as the third experience from Layered Reality™.
In partnership with Historic Royal Palaces, The Gunpowder Plot brings the world of the 1605 plotters to life and fully immerses the audience inside it.
The Gunpowder Plot builds on the Layered Reality™ technique, which combines the latest digital tech (Virtual Reality, projection mapping and volumetric holograms) together with live theatre (live actors, movie-scale sets, and special effects) plus real physical sensations (touch, temperature, smell, sound and music, physical movement, and taste) to create an unique immersive experience that is truly memorable.
Watch the video below to hear Andrew McGuinness, CEO & Founder of Layered Reality™, describe how a Layered Reality™ experience works.
SOMNAI
SOMNAI was Layered Reality™’s proof of concept. Launched in 2017, SOMNAI explored lucid dreaming and the subconscious mind, taking the customer on a trippy journey where they experienced flying, living through a fantasy and, ultimately, their own untimely death.
Jeff Wayne's The War of The Worlds: The Immersive Experience
Created in partnership with composer Jeff Wayne, Jeff Wayne's The War of The Worlds: The Immersive Experience places the audience inside the Martian invasion of 1898.
Led by live actors, audiences climb, slide and weave their way through 24 movie quality sets, encountering three Virtual Reality sequences along the way.
Jeff Wayne's award winning double album provides the soundtrack to the entire experience.
