London’s newest major immersive experience comes in the summer of 2025 with this new show from Layered Reality, the company behind the hit shows The War of the Worlds and the Gunpowder Plot. As you would imagine from the title, Elvis Evolution is a show about Elvis Presley, and promises to offer a whirlwind two-hour tour through his life, building up to his classic ’68 comeback special. We’re promised it ‘will use cutting-edge technology and generative AI to deliver intimate moments that offer an insight into the man behind the myth’ – we have no real idea what this means in terms of how the show plays out, but previous Layered Reality productions have combined more trad immersive theatre sections with VR headsets based passages.
The tickets start at a walloping £75, which also grants you access to an after party with live music; throw down £300 for the If I Can Dream Super VIP tickets and you’ll have all sorts of commemorative tat, upgraded seats and glasses of fizz you could possible want.
