From the critically acclaimed creators of Crooks 1926, ‘The Peak of Immersive,’ comes a whole new age of Bandits and Criminals.
Welcome to The West.
Opening this summer, The West is a free roam Immersive Theatre experience that invites you to step foot into the Barron Canyon Saloon. You’ll become a gun-slinging outlaw or a law-abiding marshal as you build up your town and battle for control.
Turn your hand to classic cowboy tricks to earn your keep; gamble, prospect for gold, catch bandits, rob a bank, and play to win. But beware, for there is a traitor among us. The foes of the wilderness lie not just beyond the boundaries, but within… The Snakebite Bandit roams this saloon and could change your life forever.
Leading immersive company, COLAB Theatre invites you back to share in a unique blend of thrilling gameplay and pulsing narrative. Here, the frontier is your backyard and as any True American expects, you have the freedom to change it all.
So buckle up, Cowboy, and mosey on down this Summer for the night of darn good fun. There’s a new Sheriff in town.

FAQ
What is The West?
The West is an Immersive Theatre experience, where you are encouraged to play and participate. There will be moments where the actors will be performing a set scene, and we ask for your respect to the actors in these moments.

What time does the show start?
The show start time is available on the ticket that you are sent. Please aim to arrive 10 minutes before.
What is the difference between a Preview Ticket and a Standard Ticket?
A preview means that the show is still in the development stage. The show will change during this time and will improve by the time the Standard shows run.
Will I need anything?
Nothing at all!

There is no late admission to the show.
