Museum of Austerity 
Venue: The Maria Theatre, London

Witness the human stories of Austerity Britain in this deeply moving, mixed reality exhibition. In 2016, the UN found that “grave or systemic violations” of the rights of disabled people were taking place throughout the UK. Wearing a mixed reality headset, you will experience The Maria Theatre transformed into a striking holographic gallery that explores the stories of the many people failed by the UK’s welfare state.

Featuring a capella covers of everything from Somebody to Love to Eye of the Tiger, and more terrible puns than strictly necessary, Dracapella is a fast, funny, fang-filled festive treat.
