The Mannequin at The Junction

Dubai’s theatre scene welcomes a truly unique and imaginative experience as The Mannequin comes to life at The Junction 🎭✨ Titled “A Man Akin to a Mannequin”, this one-of-a-kind live performance invites audiences into a world where storytelling unfolds spontaneously—created in real time, right before their eyes.

Created and performed by acclaimed actor and theatre maker James Scarr, the show originated in London and has toured across Europe, captivating audiences with its originality and interactive format 🌍🎬 Now arriving in the Middle East, the performance places creativity directly in the hands of the audience. Together, guests help create a character from scratch, projected onto a mannequin, before James brings that character to life through narration, movement, and expressive mime.

Supported by live musicians and technical artists, the story develops organically throughout the evening, blending physical theatre, sound, and imagination into a deeply engaging experience 🎶🕺 With 8.2 billion stories coexisting in the world, this performance discovers just one—shared, shaped, and experienced collectively with the audience.

The result is an intimate, immersive night of theatre that feels personal, playful, and thought-provoking. Language barriers melt away through expressive mime, while English dialogue guides the narrative, making the performance accessible and captivating for a diverse audience 🌟

Perfect for theatre lovers, creatives, and anyone seeking something refreshingly different, The Mannequin promises a night unlike any other—where no two performances are ever the same ✨🎭
