the royal academy of arts
ra lates
Experience the RA after dark for themed, immersive nights of creativity, ideas and entertainment, inspired by the exhibitions.
In collaboration with Imogen Willetts, Special Events Creative Programmer at the RA, and Abby and Alice, installation dream team, we write, produce and direct the immersive elements of an RA Late, breathing life into the history of the artists and the themes of their art. We’ve directed everything from a 1940s cocktail party with Peggy Guggenheim to heated debates in a 1920s communist workers’ club. We've filmed on a 1930s Hollywood Land studios lot, and invited audience members to the Heaven - and Hell - in Milton's Paradise Lost. We've staged a 1970s Manhattan Happening and earlier this year recreated one of Berta Zuckerkandl's famous Viennese salons. This March we invite you to traverse the thresholds of birth, life, and death as we celebrate the Michelangelo / Bill Viola exhibition.
