This is still fairly new to me, but as I understand it Object theater is a multimedia presentation around a central theme. In a small theater setting it is run by computers and has a range from film, sounds, lights on actual objects (hence the name) and pretty much anything else they can include to totally immerse you in the experience. People from our museum saw several in a couple of museums and found they were worked on with the people in Sudbury. The video they shot made it look very interesting with everything cycling at prearranged times. The people they spoke to said it took an enormous amount of planning and wasn't cheap (but what is nowadays?). If any one can explain it better, that would be great. Any information anyone has would be appreciated.
