Punchdrunk's Ghostlight to open at the National Theatre in 2027

Continuing a longstanding creative collaboration that started with Faust in 2006, followed by The Masque of the Red Death in 2007 and The Drowned Man in 2013, the multi-award-winning theatre company Punchdrunk, will mark 50 years of the opening of the National Theatre’s home on the South Bank with Ghostlight, a new immersive production.

Ghostlight is conceived and directed by founder and Artistic Director of Punchdrunk, Felix Barrett (The Guilty), and curated by writer Lucy Kirkwood (The Witches). Performances will begin in Summer/Autumn 2027, with further details to be announced.

Later this month, Punchdrunk will screen Persephone, a filmed version of The Burnt City featuring Lily Jo Ockwell and Sam Booth, at their home in Woolwich Arsenal.
