Hyperdramaturgy Examples

SEPHIROT® across performance, research, festivals and VR

From framework to practice

This page collects public examples, references, and case-study contexts for Alessandro Anglani's work on Hyperdramaturgy, SEPHIROT®, and playable performance.

Hyperdramaturgy is the structure. Anglani's SEPHIROT® Method is the applied design process. Playable performance is the public form.

Hyperdramaturgy

The nonlinear dramaturgical structure that organizes what can happen.

Anglani's SEPHIROT® Method

The method for designing hyperdramaturgical systems that can be played live.

Playable Performance

The public form based on rules, roles, agency, choices, and consequences.

What SEPHIROT® has opened

1

Live Performance

SEPHIROT® has been used as a playable system for live works where dramaturgy is not a fixed line, but a field of possible scenes, roles, choices and consequences.

2

Research

The project has entered academic discussion through Connessioni Remote, EASTAP and IFTR, connecting representation, simulation, interactive dramaturgy and game design.

3

Public Programmes

SEPHIROT-related work has crossed Biennale College Teatro, Romaeuropa / ADV Gathering, and Torino Film Industry, moving between theatre, digital arts and live innovation contexts.

4

VR And R&D

Through CHRONES. and SEPHIROT Interactive Experience, the system expands into VR, audience engagement, education, museums, team building and hybrid live/digital performance.

Biennale College Blend 2026

The selection marks a new development path for SEPHIROT® within hybrid live and digital performance.

In Anglani's framework, SEPHIROT® was developed as a VR videogame prototype based on hyperdramaturgical structures and motion-capture performers.

Live-performance examples

Anglani's artistic curriculum lists SEPHIROT® productions from 2019 to 2024, including Eliogabalo, Montecchi e Capuleti, Il Soldatino di Stagno, Cyrano, L'Aquila e la Volpe, La Volpe e il Corvo, Marino, and Soda.

Together, these productions show SEPHIROT® as a repeatable live format, not a single isolated experiment.
