Until 30 March. Take a journey through the maze-like underground passages and unseen spaces of King's College and Somerset House into a world of calamitous accidents and divine revelations.

Read the Run-Riot interview with dreamthinkspeak Artistic Director, Tristan Sharps here, and read the specially comissioned feature on the production (here), written by Andrew Simms, the writer and nef fellow who's described by New Scientist magazine as ‘a master at joined-up progressive thinking’.

 

'I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.' Book of Revelation: Chapter 22; verse 13

Mixing Leonardo-inspired hydraulics and modern mechanical engineering with dreamthinkspeak’s special blend of film, installation and live performance, it reveals a vision of the world either on the verge of collapse – or the brink of rebirth.

Acclaimed site-responsive theatre company dreamthinkspeak return to Somerset House after the sell-out success of their 2004 show Don’t Look Back.

Led by artistic director Tristan Sharps, the company is internationally recognised for its site-responsive performances in a range of unusual spaces, including an underground abattoir in Clerkenwell, a disused paper factory in Moscow and the Old Treasury Building in Perth, Australia.

28 January – 30 March 2013
