Immersive Theatre & Storytelling

A magical experience brought to you by Anna Söderblom & ITG Productions

Explore, play, engage!

ITG creates immersive worlds, and invites the audience in - actors talk with you, not at you; props and sets are there to be played with; we ask you to become part of our alternate reality. We work cross-platform, using the most appropriate media to tell each story within the world, going beyond live performance to music, short film, the written word, mobile apps, and internet sites.

ITG Education takes this immersive concept and brings it to schools: we are developing a show entitled Professor Scopps' Travelling Library, where the children are asked to help the Professor and his assistants to fill the library with facts, thoughts, feelings and ideas. The live show is supported by an interactive website, where the children's contributions to the library, in whatever media they choose to create them, are stored and can be shared with other schools participating in the project. The company is international, and aims to have shows running all over the world, so that the website becomes an exchange of ideas and responses based on the same creative stimulus.

We believe that the performing and creative arts are a tool that can be used to engage children and to teach any subject on the curriculum. We embrace all forms of technology as integrals tool to engage with children, and to assist with communication between schools and countries. The project builds links to assist in the students becoming responsible and educated global citizens, with relationships build across borders based on friendship and equal creative collaboration.
