FLIGHT

FLIGHT transforms a shipping container into an economy plane cabin and explores the many worlds interpretation of Quantum Mechanics, taking audiences through two worlds, two realities and two possible outcomes to their journey. There are many worlds in which this plane lands safely. 

COMA

In COMA, the interior of the container becomes a clinical facility and invites audiences to take part in a mass experiment, to lie down together and slip into a collective dream. Remember when you leave, to take your body with you.

EULOGY

EULOGY transforms a shipping container into a hotel basement, transporting audiences through a dreamlike, labyrinthine hotel. Speech recognition technology will register your answers. How your dream unfolds is, in part, up to you.

ARCADE

ARCADE is an 80s game themed choose your own path interactive experience through a war torn world. Where will your decisions lead you? Players will be asked to address deep existential questions about free will and consciousness in a world where some may win and some may lose…

PLEASE NOTE:

When booking multiple shows on the same day, please allow at least 10 minutes between the end of one session time and start of the next session
. A little longer is better so your brain can enjoy some processing time.
