VIRTUAL CONTEXT ROOM
What's The Context Room?
An interactive museum of sorts designed to give you more ways to connect with the plays we produce! Want to learn more about the playwright and the influences that inspired the writing of the play? Or perhaps dig deeper into the time period, the location or the characters? How about taking a peek into our designers' inspiration in creating the production? Where does the story resonate in our world today and in your life? Explore all of this and more in The Context Room.
​
When is it open?
One hour before showtime, at intermission if we have one, and for half an hour afterwards. You can also join us for a short pre-show talk 45 minutes before every performance. So come early, grab a cupcake, and settle in. Bonus: you'll also beat the parking crunch!
​
What does it cost?
It's totally free! Here at Luna Stage, we're always thinking of new ways to illuminate your world.​
We think of The Context Room as an engagement space, meaning you and your ideas are a crucial part of it! There will always be parts of the room that are interactive, but we'll also have a staff member on site in the room to answer questions and engage in discussion.

What is the Virtual Context Room?
This online space is dedicated to providing a supplement to the physical Context Room that you can visit before (or even after!) seeing the production. It will offer more in-depth material on the world of the play, a podcast version of our pre-show talk, and links to outside sources that you can explore for more in-depth engagement with the production you saw at Luna Stage.
​
Additionally, this online space will serve as an archive of each Context Room, so you can look back on your Context Room experiences long after each production closes and continue to illuminate your world.
