Whovians rejoice! An ambitious theatre production based on Doctor Who will fly into the West End next year. The science-fiction drama has been a pop-culture phenomenon since the 1960’s, having reached more than 75 countries, and now guests will be able to participate in their own episode; one where they play the hero.

Created by the team behind The Great Gatsby, the UK’s longest running immersive show, the new experience will be staged in a former military hall in London. After a small corner of Mayfair is mysteriously destroyed, audiences will be taken on an adventure through a rift in time - complete with daleks and cybermen!

The project will be helmed by Tom Maller, who has previously directed for Secret Cinema, and will be written by Daniel Dingsdale. Torchwood’s James Goss will serve as consultant, whilst Rebecca Brower will provide the designs. The team hopes to draw on the TV shows rich legacy, entertaining fans both old and new.

Doctor Who: Time Fracture will open in February, 2021 with care workers being able to attend a free preview. General tickets will go on sale Friday 20 August. To book tickets, please click here.

The Great Gatsby is also due to re-open in October with socially distanced measures in place. To book tickets for this event, please click here.
