Alchemy Theatre

‘Embark on a strange and spectacular journey through experimental theatre and multidisciplinary performance. Reimagining history with a mystical twist, we delve into the otherworld to discover forgotten stories. Experience the sublime as we reinvent the past, blending imaginative storytelling with historical research, aesthetics, and a touch of magic. Uncover the alchemy of process and sensation, reconsidering our collective memory through an immersive, unforgettable experience.’

Writing for the live theatre

Writing and developing art performances for the Eidophusikon

I built an Eidophusikon, a miniature theatre first created by painter and stage designer Philip James de Loutherbourg in 1781. This is a special Effects (SFX) theatre without actors or character, just moving scenography and effects. My first show Into the Sublime was exhibited in sold out performances for the Bloomsbury Festival 2024.

INTO THE SUBLIME:

Into the Sublime enters the mind of the Alchemist and takes the audience on a journey from the natural world into the afterlife, visiting Heaven and Hell and glimpsing a vision of the Divine. Collaboration with artists Liane Lang, Shannon Rakochy, Marwan Elgamal, Nazir Tanbouli, Natasha Redina, Takatsuna Mukai, Jagoda Kamov and diz_qo. Design and build by Mark Fairhurst.
