Ark by Night
for Ark Schools
The Project
Immersive storytelling that makes real change happen. After having held some of the most successful Charity Galas, Ark Schools were looking for an entirely new and innovative approach to fundraising events. They wanted to surprise and challenge their supporters, and create a production of the highest possible quality and impact. And they wanted to show how every child can succeed if only they are offered the right opportunities.
The result was Ark by Night. A theatrical experience, repeated over two years, that deployed around 50 actors, with audiences guided through a series of immersive experiences, often one on one with actors. A combination of storytelling techniques were deployed to create the maximum impact, raising money beyond expectation and deepening understanding around complex and sensitive issues.
