Audience Experiential Immersive Performance
< The Burning Field >
Journey into The Burning Field alongside Jeong Jin-woo as he desperately struggles to save his failing connection to his father before it goes up in flames. Set against a backdrop of unstoppable wildfires and thick smoke, this immersive performance traces the traumatic history of a relationship as it approaches its flashpoint. With a crew of local firefighters to guide you through the inferno, will you choose to stay with Jin-woo as he pleads for reconciliation, or set out with Captain Jeong Jin-Cheol to battle the blaze? Following the April 4, 2019 disappearance of his father, investigative reporter Jeong Jin-woo sets out alone toward Gangwon Province. Veteran firefighter Jeong Jin-Cheol has vanished to battle the massive wildfires engulfing Goseong, Sokcho and Gangneun. Jin-woo’s struggle for connection to his father’s painful and shadowy past is obstructed by broken communication, roaring flames, and thick smoke.
