Drift (2025)

When a glitch in the system, transports us to a new interface…

Follow Player 1 and Player 2 through our new Sensory Theatre show, as our audience are drawn inside an old arcade game.

With 8-bit music, and video-game inspired lighting, we are inviting learning disabled audiences  aged 5+ to explore with their senses on every level.

This interactive experience will put our audience on the controls, steering our Players through the journey of the game.

Enter…

Drift is a multi-sensory production designed in collaboration with learning disabled young people from Leeds East SILC, John Jamieson School.

Audience participation changes the course of the story, giving the audience a voice in the outcome of the show.

Touring Nationally to Arts Centres, Theatres & SEN Schools September & October 2025

  • 2 shows a day
  • Running time aprox 45 minutes
  • Interactive participation
  • Capacity aprox 25 per performance including 8 wheelchair spaces

 

“The opportunity Kala Sangam provided for Interplay to visit our Academy was truly exceptional. Through the magic of live theatre, Interplay brought the story of DRIFT to life, creating an unforgettable experience that empowered and inspired our pupils. This unique opportunity allowed them to connect with the art of storytelling in a way that was engaging, inclusive, and transformative, leaving a lasting impact on all who experienced it. The engagement from all pupils was noticeable, with eyes fixed on the performers. Interplay and their team did an incredible job of meeting the needs of our pupils, adapting to their pace and interests, and truly building meaningful relationships through the performance. It was an experience that will be remembered by both our pupils and staff alike – thank you!”
