Light

Work:: Light (S0612065848)

Inspired by a dream, the revelations of whistleblower, Edward Snowden, and the debate surrounding state surveillance, Theatre Ad Infinitum brings to life a nightmarish future where the state is secretly watching citizens' minds... Light explores the horrors of state secrecy - all played out in darkness and fusing graphic novel and cinema-inspired sci-fi visuals with sound and physical storytelling... .A rare beast - science fiction for stage. Multi award winning Theatre Ad Infinitum presents a dystopian future where implants connect our brains to cyberspace and governments secretly infiltrate our thoughts. Intense darkness, torchlight and a stunning soundscape tell a story of love, betrayal, and technological power.
