The adaptation of ”Woyzeck” is performed in a former Royal Mail sorting office
Punchdrunk's The Drowned Man A Hollywood Fable has extended booking at 'Temple Studios' until at least 6 April 2014.
The show, a collaboration with the National Theatre, is inspired by Georg Büchner's unfinished 19th-century play Woyzeck and premiered in June 2013.
It's performed in a former Royal Mail sorting office situated at 31 London Street, next door to Paddington Station.
The Drowned Man A Hollywood Fable is set in a Hollywood studio populated by "dreamers who exist at the fringes of the movie industry". Involving a company of over 30 performers, it's Punchdrunk's biggest project to date.
Led by Felix Barrett, Punchdrunk's previous productions include Faust, The Masque of the Red Death, Tunnel 228, It Felt Like A Kiss, The Duchess of Malfi, Sleep No More (which continues its New York run) and The Crash of the Elysium.
