Welcome to the Companion App for stage performances and cinema screenings of ‘BadaBoom’, the world’s first ‘hybrid eGaming / Storytelling’ experience. This App features AR-enhanced ‘First Person Shooter’ simulations, which seamlessly integrates unique gaming features into each live performance and screening of the show. BadaBoom is a genre-defying story – part confessional, part e-gaming, part love story – that invites the audience to reflect, compete and be transported. As a storm rages, a retired hitman recounts his past to a curious writer. But his memories don't stay still - they sing, scream and bleed back into the room. As he recounts his tale, each kill is re-enacted as a haunting aria, and each story is a psychological duel. But when the tension rises, it becomes clear: this is no ordinary interview... and nothing is what it seems. Part thriller, part opera, part game - BadaBoom is an immersive experience like you've never seen before. At key moments, the audience joins the action, stepping into augmented-reality flashbacks where clowns, cowboys and soldiers return from the dead, which the audience too can then battle using their mobile phones! Visually stunning and emotionally resonant, it’s therefore a must-see show for anyone seeking next-generation immersive storytelling. You’ll be engrossed in a thrilling, interactive spectacle where every mission is shared, and every twist and turn is influenced by players in the audience. So it's entertainment, but… re-imagined. Created in Ireland using Second Screen’s patented technology, this is a world-first blend of eGaming with Storytelling, where the audience doesn't just watch – they play. Enjoy the show!
