An extraordinary play like no other... The Théâtre Le Ranelagh, nestled in the 16th arrondissement, is excited to present the latest work by 5e Acte: Octopus, starting February 24, 2026. What makes this production unique? It’s an immersive theater piece… performed inside a traditional theater setting. In other words, it’s a three-dimensional experience, meaning you won’t be confined to your seat for the duration of the show.
And as for your seat, don't expect to sit in it for long... Why? Because you'll be wandering through different areas of the theater, each one inviting you to engage with a live character sharing their own story in real time. In total, there are eight characters, each offering a unique adventure to experience alongside them.
Industrialist Louis Mors hosts a lavish reception to unveil his plans for a groundbreaking trans-Saharan car race from Cape Town to Paris. Among the guests are an international star, a record-breaking driver, and a celebrated opera singer, each expected to add glamour and prestige to this glittering evening. However, a sinister rumor starts circulating: a shadowy figure known only as "Octopus" is believed to be among the attendees, casting a dark cloud over the event and stoking mounting suspense.
Pick your starting point and follow the thread! Each choice reveals a different part of the story, leading up to the moment where they all come together to unveil the finale. The performance transforms into a personalized experience: everyone crafts their own journey and uncovers the tale in their own way, driven by curiosity. It's a narrative that blends suspense, emotion, lighter moments, and psychological tension.
