An Immersive Japanese Folktale

November 18-December 11, 2022 / March 17-26, 2023 / July 6-30, 2023 at Sakura Square

An immersive and multi-sensory supernatural Japanese folktale and theatrical journey. Produced by the Japanese Arts Network, Theatre Artibus, Luster Productions and Control Group Productions.

ZOTTO is an immersive and multi-sensory supernatural Japanese folktale and theatrical journey. Audiences explore three generations of Japanese American women and their relationship to Denver’s rich yet sordid history as they encounter yokai and obake (Japanese spirits and demons) and other unexpected characters, discover hidden secrets within forgotten spaces, and engage with interactive elements that ask them to consider relationships between intention and impact.

As this immersive is still in production, this is an in-progress entry:

ZOTTO was my first time working in a producing capacity as an agent of the Japanese Arts Network. In this immersive, my roles and credits were assistant producer, dramaturg, set designer (concept, fabrication and original artwork), scent designer, gift shop curator, writer of in-world materials and Instagram content creator.
