In their first full production in the virtual space,
Theater Mu has brought us something completely unique, that I don't think we've seen before in #TCTheater. I have seen not a little virtual theater in the last year, which ranges from
recordings of pre-pandemic shows, to
simple Zoom readings, to
shows created specifically for streaming. But I have not previously seen a live production on this scale, with actors in six different locations across the country, using multiple areas in their homes, along with green screens, virtual backgrounds, sound cues, split screens, and overlayed images in an incredibly ambitious and successful technical feat.
Today is My Birthday is truly innovative storytelling in a way that's never been seen before.
