Darkfield’s Seance and Flight return to Melbourne, opening December 13 at the Arts Centre Melbourne forecourt, and playing for three months.
Darkfield invites audiences to step inside shipping containers where strange worlds unfold. The immersive 360-degree audio experiences challenge the senses, exploring the depths of human psychology and perception.
Produced in Australia by Realscape Productions, Darkfield Seance and Flight have to date seen over 300,000 Australians take the plunge into darkness and reportedly experience ‘heart pounding thrill’.
For Seance – Step inside, take a seat but don’t get comfortable. Seance is an intense sonic performance that explores the psychology of a group of people who have been bombarded with suggestible material. In complete darkness, senses become vulnerable to persuasion. Audiences are asked to proceed with an open mind…
Flight takes audience members through two worlds, two realities and two outcomes to their journey. The many worlds interpretation of Quantum Mechanics proposes all possible outcomes that could occur, are occurring in countless worlds of varying similarity. Find comfort in knowing that however ill advised your choices have been – there is a version of you who made better ones and is suffering less regret and embarrassment.
Amy Johnson, producer at Realscape Productions, says: “The productions are ideal for anyone who loves the thrill of multisensory entertainment, and immersing themselves in the unknown. They are playing in the heart of Melbourne’s entertainment precinct at the city’s most lively time of the year, so they’re the perfect option for a fun date night, pre-dinner experience or post-tennis thrill.”
