Step into 1988 liminal NYC — drinks, live performers, retro-futurist tech, and rooms you move through like a dream. No two nights are alike.
THE EXPERIENCE
Take a journey back in time to 1988 New York City. A woman named Belle has vanished, and the fragments of her memories are scattered across a sprawling SoHo venue brought to life through live performance, film and retro-fueled technology integrated into the story.
AETHER is a live interactive experience spread across two floors and 3,000 square feet, discover immersive characters in an apothecary, an alchemy lab, a garden of secrets, and a neon-lit lounge where the drinks keep coming. Wander freely. Linger at the bar with friends. Play a custom retro arcade games. Collect artifacts that unlock pieces of Belle's fractured memory. Live performers weave in and out of your night, and the choices you make determine how the story ends. You decide the pace, flow and outcome of this personalized immersive experience.
Part immersive theater. Part interactive art installation. Part 1980s nightclub. AETHER blends live performance, original film, music, retro technology, and creative tech into something New York hasn't seen before.
There's no stage. No seats. No script to follow. Engage as deeply as you want or just let the world and the music wash over you. No two people have the same night. And when it's over, you'll receive a personalized digital experience on your phone, built entirely from your journey through the show.
