Leandro sits down with Kevin Laibson, a director, producer, and educator working at the edge of live performance and emerging tech, to draw bright, useful lines between AI, VR, and the human heart of theater.Kevin traces the path from cheap, scrappy stages to virtual spaces where physics is optional and paper tech becomes a live demo. He explains why virtual rehearsals can cut late surprises, how actors walking first-day sets in VR changes design conversations, and what the Royal Shakespeare Company learned prototyping spatial tools for real rehearsal rooms. Then we press into the hard question: should theater keep AI out of the art? If you’re hungry for a human-first roadmap where VR strengthens rehearsal and documentation, AI automates the boring bits, and the stage stays gloriously alive—this one’s for you.
