Electric Playhouse will also have “fine dining and events, as well as fully customizable venue rentals for one-of-a-kind corporate events, private parties and weddings.”<\/p>\n
But mostly it’s the immersion.<\/p>\n
The official news release<\/a> says, “Electric Playhouse is committed to fostering a sense of community and connection through play-based activities and events. The Las Vegas location will expand this mission, providing a fun, inclusive and safe space for guests to play, connect and create memories.”<\/p>\n The venue will feature the obligatory projection mapping and sensors to “bring art to life.”<\/p>\n On the dining side, the official Web site<\/a> says, “Experience dining like never before with Electric Playhouse’s immersive fine dining events. Our innovative approach to dining blends together delicious seasonal cuisine with mesmerizing interactive projection-mapping and music. By engaging all your senses and creating a social environment like no other, our immersive dining events transport you to a magical world where you can connect with your fellow guests over a truly unforgettable feast. So come join us and discover the future of fine dining!”<\/p>\n Electric Playhouse will have a variety of “epic” interactive games, including Guacamole, Space Runner, Power Twist, Mandala Works, Power Slide, Light Hockey, Paint Pong and others<\/a>.<\/p>\n Oh, and something called Worm Royale. Which, we trust, originated in France. (Related: How in the hell is “Pulp Fiction” almost 30 years old?)<\/p>\n We want to be excited about Electric Playhouse!<\/p>\n But who, exactly, is clamoring for more immersion?<\/p>\n Electric Playhouse seems to have a lot in common with a number of existing Las Vegas attractions, such as Illuminarium at Area 15.<\/p>\n There have been a cavalcade of immersive art attractions, including the mind-numbingly boring Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit at The Shops at Crystals. There was an immersive Van Gogh exhibit at Area 15, too, the interactive mall now offers an immersive Georgia O’Keeffe attraction.<\/p>\n Apparently, the point of all this immersion is to give people something to do other than gambling and drinking.<\/p>\n Including families.<\/p>\n Yes, despite our best efforts, it appears Las Vegas is trying to appeal to families. Again.<\/p>\n This trend is so disturbing, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority created an ad campaign<\/a> actually discouraging people from bringing their children to Las Vegas. It’s glorious.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/vitalvegas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/electric_playhouse1.jpg\")
