“Immersive theatre is not new, but there’s an intimacy here that you don’t get in, say, a vast Punchdrunk show. There’s a sense of magic…”

ARTICLES & REVIEWS
“Philosophically this idea of choice is central to the work; MAZE is an offer to engage, to play, to look and to share as much or as little as you’re willing to in a cathedral of foam…”
“…entering alone shifts you away from your own world and into one that feels like a fairy-tale, and a fantasy adventure film, and a manifestation of a weird and uneasy Lynchian dream.”
“They transported us visitors into a fantasy world, which amazed, intrigued, confused and captivated us. What struck me when I left was that no person’s experience of the performance would be the same.”
“…this multi-sensory experience will be unlike anything you have experienced.”
