Whist--Virtual Reality Experience

Featuring some of the UK's top dancers and created by members of Jasmin Vardimon Company, WHIST is a dance performance that you experience in virtual reality. Read more …

WHIST explores the notion of unconsciousness through the dreams, fears and desires of a family, characters of which are inspired by Sigmund Freud’s real case studies.

Merging dance, physical theatre and sculpture with interactive technologies, WHIST immerses you in a surreal world, exploring a story from one of 76 different perspectives.


The critical consensus

WHIST is a glimpse of the future, for sure, and aside from a steaming up of goggles and the occasional difficulty getting the clips to trigger, it passes without a hitch, but it’s an experiment to try, rather than a fully satisfying theatrical experience.
