Bertie is a theater show where a group of performers play a video game, designed specifically for the project. The device will consist of a 3D video projection consisting of the streaming transmission of VR Glasses (virtual reality) used by the interpreters. The public is invited to immerse themselves in the behavior of each performer, going through the game projected on the screen, watching a game-performance connected to the network and several theater rooms, simultaneously, and in real-time.

Bertie is a show designed from the conception of a CO-OP Gaming (a way of playing in which players collaborate with each other to reach a common goal) that will take place in several theater rooms simultaneously, in real-time. The cast is made up of several performers and each one of them will be in a different city, alone on a stage. The idea is to connect stages in different national and, hopefully, international cities, in a collective experience, not only for those who play, but also for those who watch the performers participate in the game.
