Virginia, sixteen and grieving, strikes a pact with a five-hundred-year-old ghost. The audience does not watch the story: they walk through it together, headsets on, in a stylised manor somewhere between promenade theatre and animated film.
Canterville was designed from day one for Large Field Theater: up to a hundred spectators share the same physical space and the same virtual world, with no markers and no fixed infrastructure. A first version, Retour à Canterville, was presented at the Annecy Festival in June 2022.
