About this show
A literary salon in a sauna. Mellifluous phrases, magical worlds and radical ideas float in the heat as stories unspool in steam. Poems, extracts of novels, fragments of plays, sonnets, myths, manifestos and more while you relax, revive and re-energise in our saunas and cold plunges. Our purpose-built sauna theatre with state-of-the-art lighting and surround sound transforms into a luxurious portal to escapism. Let words wash over you; lie back, listen in and leave inspired. Literature has never been this hot.
