Secret Theatre Returns to East London
By: Liz Cearns
Secret Studio Lab returns after sold out immersive productions of SE7EN in Hong Kong and a secret Tarantino Adaptation this summer in London, both adapted and directed by Richard Crawford.
"Code 2021" is a world stage premiere, and the team at Secret Studio Lab are very excited to bring new material to their London audience.Written and directed by Richard Crawford, "Code 2021" is set in the not too distant future, where the criminally accused are judged by a live studio jury audience in front of TV audiences at home on Trial TV. The audience get to investigate the crime scene and ultimately decide the accused's fate after seeing the defence and prosecutions witnesses in the stand. The accused, Mike Lewis, is the 2021 Middle Weight Boxing Champion of the World and he stands accused of his girlfriend, Olympic show jumper Alice Duvall's, murder. Will you find justice for an innocent man, or will you send a guilty man to his fate? The live jury audience will decide, guilty or not guilty. The show is set in a secret film studio in east London. The audience, on buying the ticket, get the secret address and instructions on their evening as a jury.
The company, formerly known as Secret Theatre, was started by Artistic Director Richard Crawford in New York in 2007. Previous productions include a sell-out production of Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands in a disused factory in New York, Diary of a Sociopath in a Theatre Asylum in Holly-wood and, recently in London, Reservoir Dogs, Hamlet, Richard Crawford's original Freakazoid and most recently SE7EN DEADLY SINS, which sold out before it even opened.
