Director Tim Sheader said:
“This isn't just watching a story unfold; it's being inside it. You'll feel the heat of the lights, the pulse of the orchestra, and the energy of the performers. Ten years on from our original production, we wanted to find a way to bring people even closer to the pulsing heart of this piece - and there's no more powerful place to experience it than from within the action itself.”
