Description

When there is no one left but a handful of the human race, what keeps them going? Are we hardwired to self-destruct or can we find something that unites us all to survive and thrive? This production brings together dance, acrobatics, aerial silk, a new multi-person dance sphere, original composition and innovative technology to create a new look at who we might become.

This one can only be enjoyed ironically.

It's like a bad 80s sci-fi TV production, except It's mostly expressed via dance, for some reason, with some singing thrown in.

The performers aren't at fault here as they are dedicated and sincere, but whoever is responsible for the artistic direction has woefully failed them.

It's the kind of piece where I'm baffled at every stage that people sufficiently believed in the production to have the commitment and perseverance to produce, promote, and perform it.

What was unshakable was the the casts’ determination to deliver a physical theatre piece with multiple tricks and treats, from aerial silk to lightsabers; so much to feast your eyes on – prepare to be entertained and moved as these characters find their way to the end of the world and beyond.
