The Dark Room (Foundry)

Welcome to THE DARK ROOM – the legendary interactive comedy show that fuses improv, crowdwork and gaming to create an insane live-action videogame!

“An hilarious, participatory cult classic” Neil Patrick Harris ★★★★ “A Rocky Horror for nerds… reader, I howled” Telegraph, London

Come watch, and if you want – play – the choose-your-own-adventure madness! The crowd is trapped inside an inescapable dungeon with a sadistic videogame boss! Pick increasingly surreal options off the screen and try to escape! If you win – you get money! If you fail – YA DIE! YA DIE! YA DIE!

Now, will you: Find the Light Switch Go North? Abandon Hope? Be sworn at by a man wearing spiked armour and a lot of leather? (This option is permanently set to “On”)

Now its 13th year, this high-octane interactive show is the brainchild of comedian & cult leader John Robertson. Filled with stand-up, appalling prizes and more audience chanting than you’d get at a protest – The Dark Room is a gut-busting rock n’ roll comedy experience for everyone who buys a ticket.

Permanently on tour, The Dark Room has headlined stages at Glastonbury, PAX, Download Festival, MCM Comic Con, Utrecht International Comedy Festival, 2000 Trees, UK Games Expo and Bluedot Festival, and sold out at Edinburgh Fringe, Soho Theatre and hundreds of theatres around the world.
