Remember when we stepped into Elysian Heights 👁️

13 shows. 12 sold out. 270 people who chose to question everything.

Elysian Heights invited audiences into a world where an all powerful AI promised prosperity, perfection, and progress. From curated showcases of agriculture, art, and productivity to something much darker beneath the surface, every choice mattered.

Created by the Texas Immersive Institute at The University of Texas at Austin, this mixed reality experience blended live theater, escape room mechanics, and immersive tech to challenge how we define success, control, and community.
What started as an Expo became a turning point.

Do you follow the system or rewrite it?

Still thinking about the moment everything shifted.

Proud of our students who created this ambitious project that was short listed for a YUGO BAFTA student award!
