This show belongs to the Adelaide Fringe 2024 season. This season is now over.

Interior of SÉANCE, a long table with an off-white table cloth down the middle, blue wallpaper and two rows of red velvet chairs line the sides, beside each chair is a set of headphones hanging on the wall.
A male in a blue denim jacket is listening to noise cancelling headphones with a perplexed look on his face.
A festive fairy lit garden with shipping containers floating up in the air. It looks as if there was a stack of nine of them and they have begun floating upwards, leaving only one still on the ground. Each container has the word DARKFIELD written on it.

SÉANCE

 

"Not for the faint-hearted, SEANCE is a spine-tingling experience that will leave you wondering just what is out there in the darkness." ★★★★★ InDaily

Step inside, take a seat but don't get comfortable.

SÉANCE is an intense sonic performance that explores the psychology of a group of people who have been bombarded with suggestible material.

In complete darkness, your senses become vulnerable to persuasion.

We only ask that you proceed with an open mind...

SÉANCE is part of DARKFIELD, a collection of experiences that utilise striking sets inside shipping containers, binaural 360 degree sound, complete darkness and a variety of sensory effects, where each participant is situated at the centre of an unsettling narrative.
