ABOUT

Our work is an act of interruption.

We believe reality is not a fixed state. It is a house with many rooms, yet we are taught to live in only one. Beyond the familiar walls of our daily perception lie other chambers of experience, and some of them offer a broader, more profound meaning of what it is to be human.

Uncanniks is a narrative art company dedicated to staging the worlds that shimmer in the periphery of our own. We build tangible, alternate realities as a method of inquiry. We dismantle the stage, remove the seats, and place you directly within the frame of a new story. Actors, custom technology, immersive sound, and imaginary architecture help us to craft every element to dissolve the boundary between audience and performance, between the everyday and the possibility of another step in our evolution.

We use theatre as a technology, sound as a vehicle, and metaphysics as our map. Whether in the enclosed space of a performance or a silent procession through the city streets, our goal is always to create a relationship between inner and outer spaces where we can explore the limits of our consciousness and listen to the voice that waits beyond the monologue.

TEAM

CREW

Zark Nyme
Founder. Artistic Director.

Uncanniks is a reflection of a time—the one we live in—but it mirrors more than just one space. There are places for the subject and the contemporary tale, but there are also places where the intersection between narrative and survival presents an opportunity to think and feel what we are. The stories Uncanniks unravels are a reexamination of human identity and its perceptions, of the scope of individual and collective consciousness, and of the possibility of a form of existence that was always latent, waiting to be unveiled.

KIarash Vakhshouri
Founder. Producer.

I’ve always been fascinated by the interplay of science and the human spirit—how neurobiology, physics, and technology can amplify our capacity to explore the self. Uncanniks is my way of merging these worlds, creating a pressure cooker for transformation that’s both deeply personal and universally resonant. It’s about shattering the fear of the unknown, demystifying altered states, and empowering our audience to embrace the struggle and beauty of their own minds.
