FOR ONE
a series of plays built for an audience of one
Experience Director Arlo Howard
[August 30 - September 30, 2017]
with (re)discover theatre
​
FOR ONE was a visceral fifty minute event comprised of five plays, built for an audience of one. There were two disKnct tracks to choose from. Each play was its own adventure, creating a blend of breath-taking imagery, auditory, and inKmate encounters. FOR ONE empowered its audience to affect the outcome of each play. (re)discover took over the historic Gunder Mansion, filling each room with a unique theatrical event. Audiences entered as a group of ten and were then guided through five distinctive, individual experiences. Each door in the mansion opened onto a world all its own. A world that put the audience in an essential role. The creators of FOR ONE were inspired by the opportunities offered with a live solo audience. When creating each director asked themselves how to empower our audience.
​
"each room feels like a special customizable adventure”
"you’re immediately drawn into the midst of action"
​
"a kaleidoscope of deeply personal, wildly varied experiences that allow audience members to make choices that affect the
outcome of the stories”
"haunting, soothing, unsettling, hearfelt, sad, and so much more”
​
"No one individual will have the same adventure"
​
"an alluring, challenging, highly imaginative playground"
