Families Performance

About

Red Ladder Theatre present Colosseum of Chaos, a fast, interactive, and hilariously chaotic theatrical experience at Queen’s Mill, Castleford.


Two absurd Gladiators worship an onstage Amazon Alexa, their all-powerful overlord, who commands them to battle each other, perform ridiculous feats, or invite the audience into increasingly silly games. The crowd is split in two, each side backing their Champion.


Audience members can even take to the stage in games that decide the Gladiators’ fate. Between contests (games), expect highly choreographed slapstick fight sequences, with the audience controlling the soundtrack via Alexa, from Eye of the Tiger to Kpop Demon Hunters’ Golden. It’s ridiculous, competitive, and entirely in your hands!
