A man in a grey long sleeve top and grey trousers is laid out horizontally on top of a cabinet that has a lightbulb inside it which lights up the man’s face. The title appears above him, transparent against a vibrant purple square which casts a purple shadown on the rest of the image. It reads ‘The Dark. By Peut-Être Theatre’. Behind the title rises a large wooden door and part of a wall.

Laszlo is afraid of the dark. The dark lives in the basement. It doesn’t visit Laszlo in his room. Until one night it does . . .

Merging vibrant physicality with live music to create captivating performances, The Dark is accessible for blind and visually impaired children through integrated audio-description and touch tours.

Join Laszlo on his journey to meet the dark, and find out why it will never bother him again.
