About the production

In July 2010, National Theatre Wales took social gaming to the North Wales cost. Designed as a theatrical gaming experience for adults, 'The Beach' aimed to bring back Prestatyn's missing generation. The sell out show, saw groups of 6 players in 6 teams competing against each other in a series of physical, mental and thought provoking games in order to win pieces or elements.

In partnership with Hide&Seek, three writers took on the challenge of creating a social gaming experience like no other.
The interactive show also had an online life, with games, characters and more coming to life n Facebook, youtube and more, you can find more information on this by visiting our community pages here.
