Through a surrealist conceptual narrative the performance explores social shifts in humanity starting with Baldo performing ‘the last show on earth’ as we know it, navigating a brutalist world that defies logic and ending with him inhabiting an ethereal energy driven new world.

The xR performance includes virtual lights programmed from a lighting desk controlled along with the real lighting fixtures as well as augmented reality elements and a virtual set extension.
