NEW YORK, July 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- DARKFIELD, the UK-based creators of deeply intense, immersive, audio experiences that blend theatre, technology, and 360-degree sound, premieres its acclaimed shows "FLIGHT" and "SÉANCE" in the US tonight at ArtsDistrict Brooklyn, a state-of-the-art immersive and experiential arts venue, located in Greenpoint (25 Franklin Street). The official opening night for both works is Thursday, August 4. Created for thrill-seekers and novices alike, "FLIGHT" and "SÉANCE" are presented in complete darkness, inside customized 40-foot shipping containers, and have played to sold-out houses in the UK— including Edinburgh's Festival Fringe, the world's largest arts festival — Australia, Mexico, and South Korea.

Key Points:
