About This Event

This winter: Hexmoor: The Longest Night (Christmas Special) 3 November to 10 January, Tuesday to Sunday For midwinter, the prison keeps its own observance. The Longest Night is Hexmoor reworked for the darkest stretch of the year: the same cell block, the same inmates and the same threat at midnight, with [one-line story hook from the synopsis]. Every cell gets a lantern. The Longest Night replaces the regular show for the whole run, so every booking between 3 November and 10 January is for the winter production. The Apprentice, from £48 The full winter show, your cell, your jumpsuit and three potion cocktails. The Winter Enchanter, from £61 Everything in the Apprentice, plus a festive cocktail and a Hexmoor tin candle to take home. The Sorcerer, from £84 Everything in the Winter Enchanter, plus a handcrafted wooden wand to keep. Planning a Christmas do? Your group always gets its own cell.

We provide your jumpsuit, so there's no need to dress up. Minimum age: 18+. The show uses strobe, flashing lights, smoke effects and loud noise. From the team behind Alcotraz, Avora and Moonshine Saloon. Hexmoor: London's Fantasy Prison Experience, with Cocktails You've been convicted of dark magic. Tonight you serve your sentence at Hexmoor Penitentiary, the most secure prison in the magical realm, hidden beneath Hackney Road. The guards hand you a jumpsuit at the door, lock you in a cell and dose you with potions to keep your magic down. Then the walls start talking. Hexmoor is immersive theatre with live actors and three cocktails included. The show runs for 1 hour 45 minutes, and it's as funny as it is dramatic. YOUR SENTENCE: A hidden realm of magic sits alongside our own. Commit an ordinary crime and you end up in Alcotraz. Commit a crime of dark magic and you end up here. Inmates have been vanishing from their cells for two months. A prophecy says the thing this prison was built to hold is coming back at midnight. The High Constable insists everything is under control, and nobody in the cell block believes her. Somewhere in your cell is a wand. Its light shows the messages the missing prisoners left on the walls, and those messages point to the High Constable's private vault. Work with the inmates to break in, decide which of the staff is secretly serving the enemy, and be in the cell block when the clock strikes twelve. You'll share the night with a governor who introduces herself with a list of her own magazine awards, a guard who deals contraband and is bored of everyone, and a non-magical exchange worker from Indianapolis who badly wants to tell you about the zoo. Talk to them, bargain with them, play along. The more you give the cast, the more you get back. THE POTIONS: Your three cocktails are the prison's suppressant potions, mixed by its resident hexologists and dosed to hold an inmate's magic down. Each one changes in front of you. Tickets: The Apprentice, from £44.50 The full show, a cell for the length of your sentence, your jumpsuit and three potion cocktails. The Enchanter, from £57.00 Everything in the Apprentice, plus a fourth shimmering cocktail and your own Wizard's Licence to take home. The Sorcerer, from £80.00 Everything in the Enchanter, plus a one-of-one wand made for you and handed over during the show. Prices shown are off-peak.
