In a landmark production of unmissable storytelling, Malthouse Theatre launches an immersive theatre work on a scale never seen before in Australia. An entire world has been constructed for you to explore: follow the royals through the palace, roam the length of a town on the cusp of the digital age, or sift through the drawers of a single desk. Whatever you choose, a story will play out around you of a regime on the edge of collapse. You are a silent witness in the halls of power on a pivotal night in history. Move, venture deeper, listen closely, because the night will soon be lost—and all its secrets with it.
“And the set is truly the star of this show. Designed by Dale Ferguson, Marg Horwell and Matilda Woodroofe, it’s an impressive achievement – containing everything from a costume store to a mausoleum and many, many moods.”
“Certainly the overwhelming star of the show is the design – Dale Ferguson’s fiendish architectural design and Marg Horwell and Matilda Woodroofe’s intricate and endlessly fascinating set design.”
