Blurring the boundaries between audience and spectator, the audience lose themselves in a hyper imagined world of the film, Secret Cinema is asking the audience to prepare for their most daring production to date.

This will be Secret Cinema’s 17th production created by Future Cinema,pioneers of live cinema who are changing the way films are seen, exhibited and distributed.

Comprising more than three weeks of performances, Secret Cinema will take place from 6th – 31st December with matinees on Saturday and Sunday. Set to stage in an unknown central London location, this cinematic secret follows a screening of Gillo Pontecorvo’s “The Battle of Algiers” in April 2011, which drew more than 14,000 viewers to the Old Vic Tunnels underneath Waterloo Station.

With Secret Cinema the audience don’t just passively inhabit the world of a film – the carefully crafted world puts them at its heart, allowing them to determine their level of involvement. It generously offers an opportunity to inhabit the film, to play, and to emote with the actors in a seemingly unrestricted environment…

November’s secret remains unknown; it will be operatic in scale.

The location is the journey; the cinematic tale is the trick – take a look at what has gone before below – to get an idea of what you have to look forward to!
