Pocket Theatre

An app for visitors to Portugal, accessible to everyone.

However, the choice of the name ‘theatre’ is not in the strict sense of the word – as in a building or a company – but rather as an app that offers immersive experiences, namely audio tours. The tours allow tourists to discover the city through the stories of the protagonists of the ‘play’. We want to explore new cities without getting bored, so we’ll try to turn ordinary tours into exciting ‘shows’. The idea for this app came about during a trip around Europe when we looked for an audio guide that wasn’t boring, but it proved an impossible task. All audio guides focus on facts, dates and historical rulers. After analysing most audio guides, we came to the conclusion that this product has everything it takes to be interesting and in high demand. It is important to create a new kind of ‘theatre’, where modern technology, classical dramatic techniques and travel are combined. This will help to change perceptions of theatre and travel in general. With the help of this app, visitors will be able to delve deeper into the culture and history of cities and countries, making their travels more immersive and meaningful.
