A bold, unflinching study of the modern world.
Synopsis
In order to overcome the challenges of the 21st century we must work collaboratively. FUTURE PROOF is a cautionary tale of how much destruction can be done when we focus on ‘fixing’ the future instead of learning from our past.
Future Proof is a visually arresting physical theatre work. It is a dreamscape that vibrates with the challenges of the 21st century – the light and dark, the ugly and the absurd.
The power of this piece is how it draws you in, gets under your skin, then spirals into chaos leaving you reeling from the stark re-imaginings of what our future will be.
Brought to you by the team that left you shaken from MY LIFE IN BOXES, Gravity Dolls return with their signature style of physical theatre combining new writing with extreme physicality.
