Immersive performance spaces are rich with spontaneity, but with that comes the potential for unplanned disruptions. Safeguarding the well-being of the cast, crew, and audience while preserving the integrity of the experience requires skillful handling of tense situations. Participants will leave with practical tools to enhance their ability to respond to and de-escalate moments of tension, ensuring that immersive performances remain both dynamic and secure.
