WITNESS IS…

…a company creating explorable, narrative, live immersive experiences.
In Witness productions, we create alternate worlds within three-dimensional spaces. Audience members are given the agency to choose how they want to experience their show, and are free to follow whichever characters and pathways they please.
Witness debuted in 2017 in New York City and has since premiered multiple productions across the world. We work both in the United States and the United Kingdom, and create independently as well as within partnerships.

“Electrifying … as you follow several storylines across various rooms, you’re invited to examine scattered clues, lean in to listen to private telephone conversations, and try to solve the puzzle that has driven three detectives to near-insanity. … The show feels like being inside David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive.” —The New York Times, on NOIRTOWN
CHATTER
"You should be familiar with [Witness] … one to watch in NYC." —No Proscenium
"If you go see The Visitation, which you should … every choice you make has a profound impact on the narrative you experience and how you experience it. The thrill of that experience comes when you realize the extent of your freedom as an observer." —Paste Magazine, on THE VISITATION

“★★★★★” —Next Scene, for NOIRTOWN
“Don’t miss.” —The Stranger, on LAST DAYS OF THE TSARS

"For three nights in early November, New York City’s oldest home was haunted by a 17th-century tale of witchcraft. ... I had an enjoyably unsettling time."
—Hyperallergic, on THE VISITATION
“‘Performance pick!’ An immersive installation experience inspired by low-fi, VHS “is it real or not”-style found footage horror films … only instead of watching a movie from the comfort of your own living room, you’ll be exploring an actual multi-floor house” —Bedford + Bowery, on FOUND FOOTAGE
“Excellent and memorable … filled with death, resurrection, haunting and revenge, making a potent mix with an audience who also seems to be haunting the house.” —No Proscenium, on LAST DAYS OF THE TSARS
