In September, downtown Los Angeles will be home to a 50,000-square-foot indoor theme park: Two Bit Circus! This ambitious and innovative undertaking began when the creators were tired of making experiences for one-time events like Comic-Con, only to have to dispose of them afterward. What if, instead of filling a dumpster, they could fill imaginations and lives with wondrous worlds and a renewed sense of play? Thus, the Two Bit Circus Micro-Amusement Park, a whimsical exploration of intertwining physical and technological entertainment, was born. Immersed got a sneak peek at the variety of experiences Two Bit Circus will soon be known for.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n In addition to their story rooms, Two Bit Circus will offer people new to immersive entertainment the chance to see what the fuss is about. Not only will Two Bit Circus invite and host immersive experiences like Capital W<\/a>\u2019s Red Flags<\/em> \u2013 in which participants interact with an actor as if it was a first date that goes horribly and hilariously awry \u2013 but also provide secret meta-games that explore the building\u2019s hidden treasures and make-believe backstory.<\/p>\n One option is for guests to purchase secret missions (either long or short) through a toy dispenser in the Midway, which will guide them to the start of their journey. Other ways to unlock clandestine adventures: a phone on which people can place only one call which will give clues and information; placemats that could help start diners on a scavenger hunt; or the old-fashioned way of engaging with one of the crew members working at this unique circus.<\/p>\n Rumor has it that Two Bit Circus will be incorporating some well-known immersive companies into their overarching experience. In addition to Capital W<\/a>‘s Red Flags<\/em>, guests might be able to explore a meta-narrative within the park created specifically by The Speakeasy Society<\/a>; attend a sinfully debaucherous party with Drunken Devil<\/a>; attend their first day at work with E3W Productions<\/a>; or solve puzzles and interact with characters in a Two Bit-curated experience. While these immersive highlights are subject to change, keep an eye on the offerings at Two Bit for an ever-changing lineup.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nIMMERSIVE ENTERTAINMENT<\/h3>\n
\u201cThe best adventures are hidden in plain sight. We know, because we hid them there.\u201d
