Cachés: clé à Dalí (London R&D)
Three couples. A dinner party that refuses to end. A dream you cannot wake up from.
Walk into an enchanting chateau and join a surrealist adventure. Cross paths with a flirtatious lobster, a magnificent elephant, a table that defies all logic.
Set across multiple rooms, Cachés: clé à Dalí is an R&D production of an immersive experience, where live dance, desire and dread collide in a single, passionate and unforgettable night.
Led by a Ukrainian-British creative team and cast, this production is inspired by Salvador Dalí's only novel Hidden Faces.
Set against the backdrop of the imminent dark forces of the 20th century, this spectacle is an urgent work that holds a mirror to our tormented world.
Poignant and provocative, the production asks what we hide from the world, what we bury inside ourselves, and what survives when everything else is lost.
Trigger warnings: nudity, sexual references, war themes, BDSM, Nazi Germany, loud noises.
