Inspired by the work of Sigmund Freud and Shuji Terayama, WHIST is surreal dance meets virtual reality, taking you deep inside the unconscious mind. 

This one-hour experience merges physical theatre, interactive Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and an art installation, where instinct and desire will drive you in one of 76 possible directions, as you take an illuminating journey inside a fictional family’s fears and dreams.

Featuring original score by Jozef van Wissem and Scott Gibbons and art installation by James Shaw, this promenade performance invites you to drive your own narrative in a virtual world.
