Punchdrunk’s The Burnt City at One Cartridge Place, Woolwich

April 30, 2022 Last updated: April 30, 2022 9:19 pm By Ben Ross

Punchdrunk's The Burnt City (Photo by Julian Abrams. Performers: Vinicius Salles, Omagbitse Omagbemi, Andrea Carrucciu.

No seats here. Rather than watching a stage through a proscenium arch, in Punchdrunk’s The Burnt City, the audience wanders around some of the most elaborate sets I’ve ever seen, in a vast maze of rooms and corridors and cubbies. The action takes place all around me, and at every moment multiple storylines unfold. Characters move around the spaces, intersecting with others for a short time or a long time, then drifting apart again. It is like an elaborately staged ball. Elegantly costumed … [Read more...]

The Drop by Swamp Motel – Immersive Show

November 10, 2021 Last updated: November 11, 2021 5:28 pm By Ben Ross

The Drop is Swamp Motel - Immersive Show

The Drop is a fully participatory immersive show, which puts you and up to three friends into the centre of a thrilling ride. We arrive at our appointment with our wealth managers. I haven’t realised any of my group are fabulously rich, but you have to roll with the punches. We sign in at reception, and are directed to a meeting room on the third floor. ‘Elevators are just around the corner,’ we are told. Someone has left their briefcase in the lift… With a successful trilogy of online … [Read more...]

Review of In the Shadow it Waits- LIVE Horror Experience

June 4, 2020 Last updated: June 4, 2020 11:34 pm By Chris Omaweng

In the Shadow it Waits

I’m still not sure what the most frightening element of In The Shadow It Waits really is - is it the events that happen to the characters, or is it the idea of a very extended period of lockdown? (An exact number of days is given to the audience, but let’s not give everything away.) A relatively short live experience, the set-up is quite straightforward, and, at least in terms of the background story, believable. While the consequences of playing an online game - which can actually be viewed … [Read more...]

LIFE: The Gameshow at the VAULT Festival | Review

March 9, 2020 Last updated: March 9, 2020 7:34 pm By Terry Eastham

Dave Bibby - LIFE

One of the great aspects of going to the Vault Festival is seeing something that is not quite finished but is being ‘beta’ tested with a live audience - in theatrical terms, a ’work in progress’ - and that is exactly what I did with a visit to Dave Bibby’s new production, Life: The Gameshow. The show starts as we arrive, with Bibby giving us a playing card and either a birthday hat or a crown. The hat meant you were a hen - a woman - and the crown meant you were a stag - a man. Other gender … [Read more...]

Fat Rascal Theatre’s Waiter, There’s A Murder in my Soup!

March 6, 2020 Last updated: March 6, 2020 5:15 pm By Olivia Jannesson

Fat Rascal Theatre's Waiter, There's A Murder in my Soup!

It’s 1946 and the Marchioness du Jour, a venerated prima donna and a wonderful singer, is set to perform at tonight’s grand opening. Dignitaries, cultural bigwigs and the finest folk from around the world have flocked to the event, and the room is buzzing with anticipation. But all is not as it seems when a chilling and brutal murder is discovered. The performance by the Marchioness du Jour is put on hold, having been murdered, and the would-be grand night quickly becomes a crime … [Read more...]

Darkfield at London’s King Cross | Review

March 1, 2020 Last updated: March 1, 2020 3:06 pm By Olivia Jannesson

Darkfield Poster

Nestled in Lewis Cubitt Square in King's Cross you’ll find three, unassuming, white shipping containers, each with a word painted on it; “SÉANCE,” “FLIGHT” and “COMA”. Inside, three intense and immersive shows form part of Darkfield, an anthology that brings us closer to some of our greatest fears as humans, in life and in death. Though each container has its own theme, there is definitely an overarching subtext of Darkfield and they make us question what is real and our sanity. All the shows … [Read more...]

Spree by Myriad Immersive at the Vault Festival | Review

February 26, 2020 Last updated: February 26, 2020 11:36 am By Alan Fitter

Spree

I’ve been going to the Vaults Festival in Waterloo for the past few years and was always intrigued by the portacabin at the junction of Lower Marsh and the Leake Street tunnel which is used as performance space. This year it’s been taken over by Myriad Immersive to put on Spree a piece of immersive theatre which to quote their promotion material is: 'An intimate immersive experience inspired by the hit Netflix series Mindhunter and pioneering crime podcast Serial'. You and your team are agents … [Read more...]
