A soundtrack, effects and voices that come from the right places in the room.

Scent that makes the world feel real the moment the door closes.
Lighting
Light that sets the mood and changes as the story moves.
A totally immersive set
Walls, floors and ceilings built around the props, so nothing breaks the spell.

Every surface aged, painted and textured until it looks real.

Pirates: a prop set made a ship
