Chalk It Up to the Unknown: Inside Chalk Outline Portal!

Tony Bordonaro and Ingrid Kapteyn are not just performing—they’re inviting audiences into a living, breathing experiment. Their latest work, Chalk Outline Portal, is an immersive “danceplay” that fuses movement, storytelling, and technology into something completely unpredictable. Built through their company Welcome to Campfire, the piece dives into grief, identity, and the shifting nature of self, all while blurring the line between performer and audience. With live sound mixing, real-time video, and even interactive gaming elements, no two performances are the same—this is theatre that reacts, evolves, and dares you to step inside it. Joined by Emmy-winning visual storyteller Roberto Araujo, who captures and enhances the experience through live video and documentary work, the team creates something that feels raw, intimate, and wildly innovative. At its core, Chalk Outline Portal is about vulnerability—about showing up as yourself, in real time, and letting the unknown lead. It’s messy, it’s human, and it’s exactly the kind of bold, genre-defying work that reminds us why live performance still matters. ✨ Listen to our full conversation with Tony, Ingrid & Roberto now on The Roundtable with Robert Bannon—streaming on Broadway Podcast Network, iHeart, Spotify, Apple, and more! #TheRoundtable #ChalkOutlinePortal #TonyBordonaro #IngridKapteyn #RobertoAraujo #OffBroadway #ImmersiveTheatre #NYCTheatre #DanceTheatre #BroadwayWorld #BPN #iHeartRadio Learn more about your ad choices.
