You probably sit to watch TV. You sit to watch movies. You sit to watch plays. You even sit to watch sports. Some of the most compelling stories come at you while you are seated. Now, it's time to get up. The Story Gym makes immersive experiences that encourage the audience to move and be involved because that's what stories are missing. Don't leave the house and pay money just to sit somewhere when you can do that for free at home. Come to The Story Gym.

The Photo Album
| Open: 07/06/13 Close: 07/26/13
While remodeling a house in Ditmas Park, a bunch of photos were discovered in the newly exposed cracks and crevices. Who did these photos belong to and what memories did they capture? Audience members must scan the photographs using the Layar app on their smartphones/tablets to reveal clues in augmented reality that send them on a scavenger hunt through the theatre to find characters and collect lost memories.
