Created by Persis-Jade Maravala & Zecora Ura (Brazil/UK) Friday 20 July – Saturday 11 August

An overnight immersive experience with a live DJ, hot chocolate and twisted games of hide and seek, exploring the dark revenge myth of Medea. The show runs from midnight until dawn ending in breakfast outside on the Hayward Gallery roof.

Having received 5-star reviews at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and selling-out its 2010 run in London, Hotel Medea returns for eight performances only.

It appeared as part of the 2010 LIFT Festival, and has won a Prix Ars Electronica Award, a Herald Angel Award, Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2011 and was Time Out Critic's Choice – Pick of the Fringe 2011.

'A rare and wonderful experience… the best theatrical production you will see on the Fringe this year' ★★★★★ (The List)

'Back home, a few hours later, I fall asleep and it fills my dreams' ★★★★★ (The Scotsman)

'Smashes our preconceptions to smithereens, culminating in a hearty breakfast at 5:30am when the audience and cast share memories of a night spattered with blood and tears of regret.' ★★★★★ (Metro)

Recommended for ages 14 and over.
