Antenna Theater presented theatrical and interactive performances using innovative techniques in theater production, particularly in the areas of sound transmission such as pre-recorded tapes and/or infra-red transmission of audio material. The Antenna experience can take the shape of a carnival, an immersive maze, a performance piece, a radio program, a guided mystery tour, a sideshow or a giant walk-through sculpture. Antenna uses them all to put the audience, or "audient" into the middle of the action. Antenna's current production is the "Magic Bus," a ninety minute multimedia adventure, taking place aboard a customized bus driving through San Francisco. The show evokes the era and politics of the Summer of Love through a mix of oral histories, rock n roll, live action, 3D and video production while the bus rolls through North Beach, the Haight and Golden Gate Park.Antenna Theater also produces the ECOlogical Calendar. Instead of a grid-based calendar, the ECOlogical Calendar shows the days running from left ot right, with tides, flora and fauna and then the sky and stars represented above. Its design was inspired by its production "Sands of Time."
