Broadway VR offers fully immersive virtual reality theater experiences with a VFX-first content platform that aims to take real theater experiences online. On Broadway VR, viewers will be able to see shows made with real actors performing on 3D VR sets with live-action motion capture technology. As Broadway VR describes, "we are announcing our production platform where anyone can participate in theater production and get returns based on PPM views model (similar to YouTube) with a chance to earn more."
Coming fall 2020, Broadway VR is being developed at a time when major broadway shows and local movie theaters are temporarily closed, and people are turning to at-home platforms that can be accessed online for viewing entertainment instead.
