Doctor Who: Time Fracture was a stage show produced by Immersive Theatre and licensed by BBC Studios, with James Goss acting as lore consultant and script editor. The staged production - billed as an "immersive experience" - was written by Daniel Dingsdale.
It featured video and audio clips, special effects, screen-used props and creatures, and music cues from the series[1]. After being delayed from its initial opening date in 2020 due to COVID-19[1], it finally opened on 26 May 2021 at Davies Mews in London. The show had a length of two hours and fifteen minutes.[2]
All of the main TV Doctors were featured in some capacity, represented in a variety of ways.[3]
