The Shop For Mortals And All Fools

Old relics, curious finds, hidden trinkets and heirlooms, remnants of forgotten stories. In this enigmatic shop, a select audience is invited to an exclusive preview of its mysterious collection. Those who know where to look may now step closer into a world where gods and mortals clash, where chaos reigns supreme, and where the foolish dare to dream. Where the memories you thought were long forgotten still linger, haunting your every step.

The Shop for Mortals and All Fools is a site-responsive and immersive physical theatre experience conceived by Vinicius Salles. Inspired by Euripides’ The Bacchae, this bold production delves into one of the greatest tragedies ever written, weaving an original and compelling narrative that explores power, vengeance, and the fragility of the human spirit.

The Shop for Mortals and All Fools welcomes clients seeking distinction, discretion, and items not easily found elsewhere. This is not merely a place to shop, but a destination for those who proudly seek not only rare products but unforgettable experiences.

Every day a diferent Shopkeeper will be serving the audience.

Ghosts of Mislaid Things - £18

Ghosts of Mislaid Things invites you into the stockrooms of the Shop of Mortals & All Fools.

The Fool's Inner Circle – £85

Limited to only four sessions, this offering includes a rare item from the hidden collection, handpicked to resonate with your presence. You will also indulge in a singular evening where art meets pleasure, followed by une soirée vins et fromages and an intimate conversation with the performer in an unforgettable atmosphere.

The Patron's Chamber – £500

Reserved for one honoured guest. For those accustomed to experiences of exceptional rarity, The Patron's Chamber offers privileged access to The Shop for Mortals and All Fools, where you and the shopkeeper of your choosing journey through the collection and its curiosities.
