60 minutesMain Auditorium
Narcosis is an experimental solo performance adapted from the acclaimed indie video game of the same name. Set in the aftermath of a deep-sea accident, it follows a diver’s desperate fight for survival as hallucinations blur the line between reality and memory. The piece combines minimalistic live performance with richly designed CG environments to create a uniquely immersive theatrical space. Time fractures. Space dissolves. The ocean becomes a mirror of the diver’s inner collapse. Neither film nor traditional stage play, Narcosis offers an intense and unrepeatable experience – visceral, disorienting, and unlike anything else you’ll see in a theatre.
