Thunderbirds Beyond the Horizon Interactive Theatrical Event is GO!

Thunderbirds fans! This is the live theatrical event for you!

Limelight Productions and ebp (Emma Brunjes Productions), in collaboration with ITV Studios have today proudly announced the world premiere of a new interactive theatrical event; THUNDERBIRDS: BEYOND THE HORIZON. Landing at the new purpose-built immersive performance space The Buzz at Mercato Metropolitano, London, performances will begin from Wednesday 7 November 2018 with press performances on Thursday 15 November.

Tickets for THUNDERBIRDS: BEYOND THE HORIZON are on general sale from Friday 27 April, but as a Gerry Anderson fan you can get exclusive pre-sale access from today, Wednesday 25 April by following this link: https://www.beyondthunderbirds.com/presale-access

The first 300 people to buy tickets, and use the code GERRY18 at checkout, will be entered into a draw to win one of four pairs of tickets to the exclusive press launch and party!

The Buzz at Mercato Metropolitano in Borough, London is the first venue of its kind, being specifically built with immersive and event theatre in mind.

Richard Lewis from Limelight Productions said today, “Three years ago, I began a journey with ITV which will culminate this autumn in the opportunity to experience the world of International Rescue. Having watched the original series as a boy the iconic countdown, “5-4–3–2–1… Thunderbirds are Go!“ is enough to make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. My ambition has always been to have our audience experience the visceral feeling of being rescued by a Thunderbird. It’s not an easy task, so much so that we have had to build our own venue in London to do so! Our extraordinarily experienced creative team is bursting with ideas and passion to make my ambition our reality. I can’t wait!”

Emma Brunjes and Ralph Brunjes from ebp said today, “When Richard arrived in our office and asked, ‘Would you be interested in Thunderbirds?’ it took us all of three seconds for us to shout, in unison, YES! As children we made our own Tracy Island, a memory that is very dear to us both. The opportunity to recreate this memory in full scale reality – and without the use of toilet rolls and papier-mâché – was too good to miss! Who doesn’t want the opportunity to be a child again? To explore, play and have fun! All our immersive productions have been technically and creatively complicated and encourage you to escape, but this one offers us the chance to push the boundaries even further. We are ‘beyond’ excited!”

Are you ready to test your nerve? Are you ready to be part of the mission to save The Horizon Project? Lady Penelope invites you to the launch of The Horizon Project at a top-secret location. However, all is not as it seems, and Lady Penelope is nowhere to be found.

The Hood has infiltrated Brains’ Lab and his work for The Horizon Project is facing a cyber-attack with catastrophic consequences. The Tracy brothers are compromised, leaving the Thunderbirds immobilised…except for one. They need your help to stop The Hood.

Audiences are invited to enter the secret world of International Rescue in THUNDERBIRDS: BEYOND THE HORIZON, created by the teams behind Alice’s Adventures Underground, Harry Potter and The Cursed Child, Secret Cinema: Back to The Future and The Game’s Afoot, in collaboration with ITV Studios. The show premieres at The Buzz, the first-ever purpose-built venue for immersive and interactive events.

And remember, to be in with a chance of winning those tickets to the press launch and party, use the code GERRY18 at checkout. BuzzTickets will then randomly pick 4 bookers who can attend the press night and party with a guest. BuzzTickets will inform the winners who has won. You’ll need to opt into mailings during the booking process in order to receive notification that you may have won and you must use promo code GERRY18 at the checkout!
