CACHÉS: CLÉ À DALÍ To Make London Debut
The immersive show written and directed by Anastasiya Yevchenko will play Kingswood House May 13-15.
Cachés: clé à Dalí, a Ukrainian-British immersive production inspired by Salvador Dalí's only novel will make its London debut this May. The production is written, directed and produced by Anastasiya Yevchenko, and supported by Arts Council England and HH Productions.
Cachés: clé à Dalí is an immersive surrealist show set against the backdrop of pre-World War II Europe. Inspired by Dalí's exploration of desire, dreams and the imminence of war.
Set across multiple rooms at Kingswood House, Cachés: clé à Dalí follows three interconnected couples against the backdrop of pre-war Europe. The show takes the audience to a dinner party at a French estate, the beach at Cadaqués where Dalí and Gala first met and a surrealist party in 1939 that does not end as expected.
The performance will run May 13 - 15, 2026 at Kingswood House, Seeley Drive, London SE21 8QN. Tickets can be purchased at the shows website.
More About The Production
Cachés: clé à Dalí had been living in the world of the imminence of war long before it became reality. Salvador Dalí's novel is prophetic. So, it turns out, was this production.
"Thematically, the show asks if history always repeats itself, what can we then do to break the vicious cycle of wars, dictators and destruction? We want to show Ukraine not as a victim of war but as a country protecting the world's freedom and democracy. A country where theater s blooming as an act of unification and resilience. A country full of creative, innovative, and fearless ideas and people. We wish to tell our story through a unique lens, creating a new style: immersive surrealism." says Anastasiya Yevchenko, Writer, Director and Producer
