“We’ve taken everything audiences love about our productions, the worlds, the characters, the spectacle and that feeling of being completely inside the story, and pushed it into a new type of live theatrical experience,” said Merritt Baer, Artistic Director and Producer of Secret Cinema, in a statement. “There’s no full film screening this time; instead, the story unfolds around you through live performance, spectacular stunts, music, film clips and a design that will dazzle and surprise audiences from the moment they arrive.”
