A Midsummer Night's VR
a thesis project
To complete her BA in Theater Studies at Yale, Paige decided to take on an unorthodox project. Using Yale's Leeds Studio, Center for Collaborative Arts and Media, and Morse Residential College's Crescent Underground Recording studio, Paige and her dedicated team of actors created a motion capture, virtual reality adaptation of A Midsummer Night's Dream.
​
Paige and A Midsummer Night's VR were featured in an episode of One, produced by the Yale Schwarzman Center, and her paper was published in the October issue of the Yale Undergraduate Research Journal online.
