Valentino The Black Tiger, produced and created by Real Live LLC. Real Live, creates immersive theaters in extraordinary places. Principals Jonathan Hochwald and Arthur Karpati are producers of Sleep No More and creators of New York’s famed McKittrick Hotel, which opened in 2011.
Over the past 28 years, Real Live and its divisions and principals have produced theatrical shows, events, concert tours and one-of-a-kind experiences around the world.
Sleep No More presentational form is considered a promenade theatre in which the audience walks at their own pace through a variety of theatrically designed rooms, as well as into an environmental theatre, in which the physical location, rather than being a traditional playhouse, is an imitation of the actual setting.
In the same spirit, the onetime only exclusive adaptation of Sleep no More for Valentino gave guests the chance to be part of a special evening called the ‘The Black Tiger’ in Moscow’s Trekhgornaya warehouse space. The dance performance throughout the space, choreographed by the Spanish choreographer Blanca Li, featured one of a kind Valentino Haute Couture gowns.
The evening then broke into a dazzling dinner party, with a live performance by New Orleans based, Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
