The Periodicals

Tour synopsis, cast & creatives

In the not so far future a group of teenagers are on the run! Living off the land, off grid in their own rubbish dump turned paradise. The education authorities are desperate to get them back to school, led by a ruthless education minister who would stop at nothing to ensure everyone is back in the system. But for these fugitives' school is not an option, as they scramble to secure a life where they can thrive under their own rules. Can they allude the authorities forever? And what are the authorities so worried about anyway? Watch this dystopian play, originally performed as part of the National Theatre's 2024 Connections festival.
