TRANSCENDENCE tells Oscar Wilde’s classic tragedy SALOMÉ through a dark, voyeuristic lens, offering the audience an immersive experience unlike anything else. Announcing the first immersive dance experience in the ancient and sacred space of 3 the storied monastery in Rye. TRANSCENDENCE is an experience for all senses, watch the story unfolding through the scented spaces, while enjoying wine and food from Herod's banquet.
Throughout the performance audiences are able to move freely within this incredible building, creating their own journeys into the tainted world of SALOMÉ while challenging their perceptions and identities within an evolving space.
