Electric Hotel

Electric Hotel is a bizarre and beautiful outdoor spectacle; a uniquely designed, fly-by-night residence brought to life through dance and sound.

Sitting on the outside looking in, you snatch glimpses of the do-not-disturb lives unfolding behind the floor-to-ceiling windows. Wearing headphones to eavesdrop on the internal spaces of the building, you witness the residents in their private rooms: their natural habits, unnatural fantasies and housekeeping of wildly varied quality.

Electric Hotel is conceived and delivered by an ensemble team: director and co-founder of Shunt David Rosenberg; choreographer Frauke Requardt (Pictures from an Exhibition at Sadler's Wells/Young Vic); and designer Börkur Jónsson (Woyzeck at Barbican; Metamorphosis at Lyric Hammersmith).

The privilege and thrill for the voyeur is seeing the bigger picture...
