“United Queendom”: When Immersive Theatre Meets Historical Reenactment Tour

Posted by Aida Rocci | 5th Mar 2020 | Immersive Theatre, London, Review, United States of America

United Queendom shines with potential. The location itself offers the thrill of being after hours in a royal palace, the expectations of whispers and court intrigue. Queen Caroline and Henrietta Howard bring a captivating tale and Les Enfants Terribles have a relevant lens to approach it and a bold aesthetic to make a memorable event. But I wished I had been part more of an immersive show than of a historical tour.

Druid Shakespeare: “Richard III” – The Voracious Void

Posted by Antigoni Gaitana | 7th Feb 2020 | Design, New York, Review, United States of America
