Taking place over three days to groups of no more than 36 participants, the immersive adventure will provide a unique, personal experience for every audience member, surprising them with curious artistic encounters as they inhabit new worlds in Barrie, Canada and London, England. The experience culminates in a site-specific mystery musical, whose dramatic themes will have been woven throughout the previous three-days.
Tickets for The Curious Voyage are extremely limited and only available from May 8 to June 27, 2018.
The Curious Voyage is written, created and directed by Daniele Bartolini. The secret musical is directed by Mitchell Cushman. The experience is based on an idea by Arkady Spivak.
Expect to be an integral part of the narrative you experience. Expect to feel delightedly lost in a world unfolding around you. Expect to be in touch with us before your experience begins and receive further information about the world you will dive into. Expect to have one-to-one scenes with cast members and small group scenes with other participants taking place in a number of unique locations and historical sites.
Day 1: The experience begins in historic Barrie, Canada, nestled on the shores of Kempenfelt Bay. The streets of the city, your hotel “butler,” and even your hotel room all play a part in the experience, preparing you for the culturally enchanting journey ahead.
Day 2: Boarding Air Canada’s day flight to London, England, the adventure continues. Every last detail of travel, from your journey to the airport to encounters with strangers along the way, informs the experience. As the second day winds down, you will find yourself settled into a luxury boutique hotel, where everyone and everything will captivate the imagination.
Day 3: Every audience member journey is unique: You may find yourself inside an old church basement, at hidden spot along the Thames riverbank, or a bevy of other off-the-beaten-path London locales. You are following a narrative of breadcrumbs, uncovering the city of London from a uniquely immersive theatrical perspective.
The last chapter of the epically immersive, jet setting journey culminates in a site-specific production of an acclaimed musical; as the experience comes to its end, audience and artists gather for one final celebration.
