Interactive theatre comes to Liverpool as secret venue hosts ‘darkly comedic game show’.
A secret venue will play host to a brand new interactive, satirical theatre production inspired by the peep shows of Amsterdam in Liverpool this November and December.
Following sell out performances at the Unity Theatre of Sirens, Men and Crabs, Liverpool Theatre company Teatro Pomodoro have today unveiled the world premiere of Peep Show: Battle Royale.
This brand new, off the wall production will utilise the group’s trademark blend of clowning, bouffon music and comedy in a darkly comedic, interactive theatrical experience, where the audience will sit behind windows, looking in on a ‘twisted new world’.
The show itself will take the form of a fictional, reality TV game show, where the contestants’ fates lie with the live audience, whose votes can influence the outcome of the game.
Joint Artistic Director, Duncan Cameron, said of the show:
“Peep Show: Battle Royale shows a world where the lines between news and entertainment are blurred and a faceless elite hide behind a gruesome, voyeuristic game show as they manipulate all media, society, and politics. Regular people become gladiators to destroy each other on international television and win a chance at a better life. Think The Muppets meets Gladiator!”

Audiences at Peep Show: Battle Royale will also collect points throughout the show, which will contribute to a chance to win amazing prizes.
