This new Liverpool show is recreating a rave in an abandoned Toys R Us
5 years ago
A new immersive Liverpool show will combine clubbing with theatre as it recreates a real-life rave in a closed-down branch of Toys R Us.
Liverpool based Naughty Corner Productions are known for their surreal larger-than-life shows.
Premiered at Glastonbury this summer, Raves R Us is an ambitious, and energetic show, inspired by the true story of a toy shop being used for an illegal rave, with hundreds of party-goers dancing in a former children’s toy shop.
