Interzone Theatre is a platform for augmented reality performance

An exploratory theatrical experience where the buildings, parks and waterways serve as a backdrop and passersby unwitting extras in a psychogeographical interactive journey through the cityscape.

Our first production is

The Grinderwritten by Ergo Phizmizdirection by Joel Cahen

A story of post-digital alchemy.The Grinder is nourished by our information, our thoughts, our tweets, our images, our videos, our sounds and our dreams. Within The Grinder all this information exists in a state of perpetual alchemy, as 0s and 1s, as flesh/meat, as hallucinations, as fragments of sounds, as shards of vinyl, toys, texts, paper, machinery, microchips.

A group of hackers have managed to lock down the location of the mythical Grinder. You (on your own or with a friend) must follow a set of clues and a narrative conveyed through the headphones to arrive at the destination.

You will need a smartphone or go with someone who has one
