Preview: Dark Carnival @ Old Vic Tunnels
Claudio Santana
Whether or not you’ve been to the Old Vic Tunnels yet, this weekend’s Dark Carnival is the perfect chance to see this unique venue in a new light and promises something for everyone. There will be a small cinema with films including Peter Capaldi’s Syncing, physical theatre performances from international artists, cabaret in the bar area and even some improv comedy. On Saturday, there is the extra treat of the Red Light Night with additional performances from 8:30 until late.
The show (along with its website) has been put together with volunteers who have worked on other Old Vic Tunnels productions this year. They are part of a scheme to give 16-25 year olds a non-traditional route into theatre work including front-of-house, marketing and production. Tickets are £9 (£6 with concessions) and £1 from every ticket goes to the children’s charity The Railway Children.
More information and tickets are available from their website.
