A new immersive horror experience is set to open in Hackney Wick in early 2025 for a limited run. DEATHCELL: Magenta, from R Space Productions, is described as a 'wild and thrilling experience, combining theatrical cinema, time-pressured puzzle solving and impossible decisions'.
The official event description explains more about the show...
Built on chaos and corruption, DEATHCELL is a formidable institution of abused government power. It’s a heart-pounding prison of puzzles, punishment and paranoia. A problematic penitentiary where decisions determine fate. In this modern dystopia, inmates are treated as players in a political prison, fighting for survival and subject to pained puzzles where choice is a weapon of fate. You must select to survive.
