Depicting images of family life, Purgatorio is set in a domestic space where the use of imagination disguises reality, tormenting the soul.

Presented as three separate events - Inferno, Purgatorio, Paradiso, Romeo Castellucci has dismantled, exposed and transformed Dante’s epic text into a truly lived experience. Using a profoundly visual style, Castellucci creates a deeply unsettling world forcing you into a hauntingly beautiful nightmare, engaging the senses in an experience you are unlikely to forget. This is highly visceral theatre, not for the faint-hearted. Trilogy freely inspired by Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy
