Framed as a storybook-like exploration of possibility, The Forest For The Trees by PLAYLAB, INC. is an interactive installation that invites visitors into a child-like world where imagination is limitless.

From miniature models to large-scale theatrical sets, guests are welcomed into a fantastical landscape they can call their own, as detail after detail, they see the whole picture.
