The Door in Question
Event description
An interactive descent into altered perception.
"You don’t know what’s real."
– The Age
The Door in Question is a live, immersive adventure where the world refuses to stay still. Spaces shift when you’re not looking. Corridors stretch into unfamiliar directions as reality shifts beneath your feet.
"Multi-sensory, interactive, and intentionally disorienting—this is immersive storytelling at its most unsettling."
–Time Out Melbourne
You take a step, but the space tightens. The path ahead contracts, shifts, breathes.
Muffled voices echo through the walls—then repeat, out of sync. Signals pulse beneath the floor. A shape flickers at the edge of your vision—too distant to see, too close to ignore.
Projections distort your surroundings. Virtual spaces collapse into reality. Your shadow lags behind you. Or moves ahead.
Identities shift, flickering between roles like a half-remembered dream.
"You’re never sure if you’re fully in control, witnessing reality, or watching the delusions of the other characters."
– Secret Melbourne
Where you can’t trust what you see—how do you know you ever left?
More than an escape room. More than immersive theatre. More than an art installation. More than a performance.
It doesn’t just surround you—it absorbs you.
Footscray is built on layers. Some were buried. Some were rewritten. None are gone. The deeper you go, the more it surfaces. The more it watches.
This is not an exhibition. It’s an experience that moves with you. What you see may not be what others see. What you hear may not be meant for you.
"Step inside and question everything."
– Broadsheet
Something moves. You do too.
How long have you been here...?
