The Best of the Alchemical Door
17 & 18 December 2016
Babel Studios
An Alchemical Door is a magical door which opens to a new place every time you go through it. This unique immersive event has been running one year and to celebrate we are developing three of the writers’ pieces into 20-minute versions.
One of the three will be performed as an hour long immersive event in the Spring. Come along and cast your vote on your favourite. Mulled wine and minced pies between pieces…
