Set across two warehouses in south-east London, The Burnt City is an immersive experience, and the story unfolds within a showscape that features a mechanic’s garage.

The show, which opened in March, is inspired by the fall of Troy, and takes audiences on a theatrical adventure through a dystopian landscape, housed within two Grade II listed buildings in the heart of Woolwich’s Royal Arsenal.

Porsche Cars GB is the headline partner of the show, and it’s the first time the marque has supported a major performing arts production in the UK. Not only has the collaboration helped bring the ambitions of the show’s visionary directors, Felix Barrett and Maxine Doyle, to life, but Punchdrunk and Porsche have also developed authentically integrated brand touchpoints to add richness to the performance – including a mechanic’s garage as part of the showscape. 

The Punchdrunk X Porsche Experience is the ultimate ticket to The Burnt City, with guests chauffeured to the show in an all-electric Porsche Taycan. Entering via a private entrance through a mechanic’s garage, they enjoy a complimentary Dewar’s Kykeon cocktail and access to a VIP table where they can watch cabaret acts in The Burnt City’s very own bar, The Horse. When guests are ready to leave, their chauffeur will deliver them home. 

Further information

The Porsche X Punchdrunk Experience is available to the public for free via a lottery, with one winner and guest selected each month. To sign up, visit theburntcity.com. The Burnt City is at One Cartridge Place, London, SE18, and is currently booking until September 2023.
