Cages - 2022 - West End History , Info & More

CAGES is the indescribable “genre-busting game changer” (LA Times) that left audiences in awe at its premiere. This stunningly realised and utterly unique live experience presents a mind-bending, technologically innovative visual spectacle, the like of which is rarely seen in the West End let alone in off-west end theatre.

Don’t miss the London debut and strictly limited run at Riverside Studios.

WELCOME TO ANHEDONIA

Where emotions are forbidden, and hearts are locked in CAGES. Woolf is a lone soul living in the shadows until he meets the dazzlingly peculiar Madeline. Can their newly minted love survive the dystopian world of control they inhabit? Long buried stories come to the surface, as dreams and reality intersect, and all Woolf holds dear is threatened.

An intimate and mysterious gothic romance beckons, serving up a tale of shared humanity and rebellious passion. Masterfully weaving state-of-the-art video and animation with live performance and original songs that pulse with an addictive pop energy, CAGES pulls out all the stops to conjure a rock opera musical for the modern age.
