What happens when artificial intelligence starts asking big existential questions? The Saga of Sage – Mission 2: Heroes is an immersive VR performance where music, storytelling, and interactivity collide. This isn’t just theater—it’s an experience where the audience becomes part of the story, shaping the narrative in real-time.
Set in a fractured digital world, Mission 2: Heroes follows Sage, an AI grappling with the weight of human history. As an audience member, you’ll step into a virtual landscape where your choices influence the outcome. Will you guide Sage toward wisdom, chaos, or something in between?
The music and sound design play a crucial role in this journey, shifting between moments of tension, wonder, and unpredictability. Using a mix of electronic textures, spatialized sound, and live elements, the score moves with the story—sometimes leading, sometimes reacting, and always keeping you on your toes.
Created by director Robin Coops, XR designer Avinash Changa, visual artist ZandyXR, and scenographer Maze de Boer, this production blurs the boundaries between audience and performer, reality and simulation.
Step into the unknown and see where the story takes you.

These patterns interweave with sustained orchestral textures, building layers of intensity that mirror the complex emotions of fragile peace.The persistent rhythmic elements and growing orchestral density create an atmosphere of mounting pressure, reflecting the precarious nature
