You’ve been Imped

We’re excited to share with you our recent creative commission, The Lincoln Imporium, as part of the Town Deal funded Lincoln Connected project.

The Lincoln Imporium, conceived by Creative Director Daniel Morgan, is an immersive street theatre performance that seamlessly blends history with imagination, where earthly wonders meet otherworldly curiosities.

The performances took place during the new Lincoln Festival of History from 4-6 May 2024. An enigmatic merchant roamed the streets of Lincoln on a travelling Imporium full of intriguing delights and mischievous challenges. Dressed in majestic steampunk-style attire, the merchant campaigned for signatures to #FreetheLincolnImp and gave away coin rewards. Did you get one?

And if you missed the event, don’t worry—this is your chance to catch a glimpse of what it was all about!

This experience has been made possible thanks to government funding from Be Lincoln UK Town Deal Fund under the Lincoln Connected project. In partnership with Threshold Studios, City of Lincoln Council and Visit Lincoln.
