impel theatre blog

Burgeoning academic.
Creator of things to read & experience. Thinks too much.
Analyzes everything. 

Reviews are meant to catalogue, interrogate, and challenge what I see.

All opinions are just that -- opinions.

The Investigator - Yukon Digital Theatre Collective

March 05, 2024

The Investigator is one part digital performance, one part choose your own adventure novel. Positioning the audience member as the leader of their own story, the experience leverages the choices and judgements of the audience in their first-person-player capacity to drive the narrative. You can choose to participate with audio, visual, or both components, however the experience is crafted to work with any of these. The use of font as a character signifier in the written elements was quite effective, although some of the fonts may have lacked readability for those with lower vision (although to be fair, there was an audio option available in this case).

There was a playful yet sinister element to the experience, culminating in questions about your choices. The many paths were cleverly devised by creator Wren Brian, and following my first outcome I was compelled to try another to see what other options and outcomes I might manage to elicit.

On the whole, this was an inventive experience well worth your time.

You can experience the production here - for free!
