Cages
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. “A first of its kind that needs to be experienced to be believed” (DTLA Weekly) “All grounded in beautiful music and a glorious story. A story of heart. A story of shared humanity. A story for our times right now.” (Forbes) “The songs have a pulsating bass, infectious hooks and a sumptuous serving of auto-tune… These earworms echo the aural aesthetics of Muse, Daft Punk, Ellie Goulding, Sufjan Stevens and Kanye West — if they were accompanied by a 50-piece orchestra.” (LA Times) Premium Tickets Extend and deepen your experience of the world of CAGES with a premium ticket.
