About

Part mystery, part game, Adrift is a participatory theatre work that brings audience members together to uncover a story exploring feelings of isolation and our fraught relationship with nature in the face of a potential mass extinction event.

Following instructions through their headsets, together participants create detailed worlds as tiny architecture reveals itself, inviting participants to interact. Lights turn on, water emerges, and mechanical discoveries are made. Here, we share a series of fantastical true stories - of infatuated dolphins, lonely whales, and remote lighthouses. 

Is our relationship with nature just as fraught as our relationships with each other - and can we find hope across an ocean of unknown?
