Immersive theatre company Punchdrunk has announced a special festive transformation for their latest show Viola’s Room.
Viola’s Room: A Christmas Tale will play from 20 November to 23 December 2024, featuring Christmas music alongside other seasonal twists to experience a different version of Punchdrunk’s intimate, linear immersive tale.
The company has also announced that 23 December 2024 will be the final performance for the show after a number of booking extensions.
Viola’s Room will also celebrate Halloween from 31 October to 2 November with a special 90s Nostalgia Weekend. At selected time slots, visitors will receive with their ticket a bespoke cocktail and exclusive access to The Prop Store bar where they will be able to make their own 90s themed friendship bracelet and enjoy some nostalgic board games with friends.
Written by Booker Prize-shortlisted Daisy Johnson, Viola’s Room reimagines Barry Pain’s classic gothic mystery The Moon-Slave for a new audience. It distils two decades of Punchdrunk’s immersive practice into an intimate, linear, audio-driven adventure that promises to suffuse the dreams of those who dare to follow the light.
The production is conceived, directed and designed by Artistic Director Felix Barrett, with co-direction by Associate Director Hector Harkness (One Night, Long Ago; The Third Day) and design by Casey Jay Andrews, who was part of the design team on The Burnt City. Working with Punchdrunk for the first time are Lighting Designer Simon Wilkinson (Disney’s Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Vanishing Point’s Metamorphosis), and Sound Designer Gareth Fry (Complicité’s The Encounter; V&A’s David Bowie Is, Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser and Diva exhibitions).
Viola’s Room is based at Punchdrunk’s home at One Cartridge Place, Woolwich, and plays until 23 December 2024.
