Toby Jones, Meera Syal, and more to voice new immersive show 'Storehouse'

Audiences will step into a 9,000-square metre underworld in Deptford Storehouse, experiencing a production that redefines the boundaries of theatre.

Casting has been revealed for new immersive production Storehouse, which "promises to be one of the most artistically ambitious, large-scale immersive theatre events ever to be staged in the UK".

Audiences will step into a 9,000-square metre underworld in Deptford Storehouse, experiencing a production that redefines the boundaries of theatre.

The voiceover artists include Toby Jones (Mr Burton, Tetris, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Mr Bates vs The Post Office), Meera Syal (Paddington 2, The Kumars at No. 42, Yesterday, The Devil's Hour), Kathryn Hunter (Black Doves, Poor Things, Harry Potter), and rising star Billy Howle (Dear Octopus, The Perfect Couple, On Chesil Beach, The Serpent).

They will lend their voices to a group of radical visionaries, who believed that by storing and analysing all human knowledge, they could ignite a new digital consciousness.

They will be joined by a physical company in Deptford that includes Nina Smith, Dawn Butler, Bonnie Adair, Zachary Pang, Nat Kennedy, Elizabeth Hollingshead, Chris Agha, Harriett O’Grady, Rob Leetham, Scott Karim, Grace Hussey-Burd, and Darrel Bailey.

This debut production from Sage & Jester, whose collective experience includes Secret Cinema, Punchdrunk, BBC Studios, and Warner Music, is led by founder and concept creator Liana Patarkatsishvili, creative director Sophie Larsmon, and lead producer Rosalyn Newbery.

The rest of the creative team includes story producer Donnacadh O’Brian and co-writers Tristan Bernays, Sonali Bhattacharyya, Kathryn Bond, Katie Lyons, Caro Murphy, and Rhik Samadder.
