A very Fringey show and immersive theater is the future. But A(partment)8 was too short to be a fully conceived immersive/interactive performance piece. At 10 minutes long, it's great to squeeze in between longer shows; it's inventive and thought-provoking and maybe the start of something bigger. During my 10 minutes in A(partment 8) I always felt I was watching a performance, not "in someone else's skin" so I was never able to completely, emotionally engage. Though to my surprise I was moved to tears later on. Wow.
