An investor briefing site for an immersive theatre experience about digital surrender

Bots & Prayers is a large-scale immersive experience examining digital surrender, staged as a twelve-room journey across seduction, revelation, reckoning, and resolution phases. The site had to work double duty: private investor briefing (password-gated) and public audience recruitment, in a tone that matched the production itself, urgent, elegant, prophetic without preaching.

Built first as a Next.js site, then ported to WordPress for the client's own content management going forward: custom theme, password-gate settings page so the client can rotate access without touching code, and asset minification (CSS/JS) for a media-heavy, video-driven page.

Structure walks the visitor through all twelve rooms sequentially, mirroring the show itself, before closing on sections for venues, collaborators, investors, and supporters.
