Before you come
Practical info
Everything you need to arrive at ease and enjoy the evening without surprises.
Château Théâtre Descas, 5 quai de Paludate, 33800 Bordeaux. Tram Sainte-Croix (2 min walk).
We invite you to come in Roaring Twenties / 1920s attire. The more fitting your outfit, the fuller the immersion.
Every Friday. Two slots: 6:30pm and 9:30pm. Please arrive entre 30 et 15 minutes avant le début (6:30pm: 6:00-6:15pm, 9:30pm: 9:00-9:15pm).
The show lasts about 2h. You may then stay about 30 min to chat with the actors. That moment is optional.
€65. The ticket includes the show and a glass of red or white wine. Other drinks are available at the bar.
18 and over only.
Every spectator receives a mask (ball mask) at the cloakroom. You then choose Safe (actors do not initiate) or Interactive (they may briefly approach you). Same price, same plot, two distances. Contact lenses are preferable to glasses: the mask is worn on the face and glasses can make it uncomfortable.
When the light focuses on the actors and the music stops, silence is asked of the spectators. The rest of the time, you may move and speak quietly. The château is large: stay alert to the cues.
Free cloakroom on site. This is also where you choose your mask.
Wheelchair access, no particular constraints.
More than 15 days before: full refund. Between 15 and 2 days: 50%. Less than 2 days: no refund.
