Hi all - here is an opportunity for people local to London to get involved in our new project about biodiversity-loss and climate change. Fell free to pass on to people who might be interested.
INTERESTED IN PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT THROUGH IMMERSIVE THEATRE?
The Enlightenment Café create award-winning multi-disciplinary science/art projects. Through collaboration with real scientists and our immersive approach to storytelling, we engage audiences with important real-world problems. We are currently seeking collaborators
for our fifth major EC production, ZΩH, which will focus on biodiversity-loss.
The show utilises the UN’s Millennium Ecosystem Assessment and the Independent Futures Forum’s 'World Game' and provides audiences with a glimpse into the lives of climate witnesses of 2019 and 2050. Prior to the show, the audience receive research material
from one of twelve departments: Water, Worldview, Governance, Habitat, Wellbeing, Biosphere, Energy, Wealth, Food, Trade, Community or Climate. In the live show, each of these departments is headed up by a scientist or researcher. They lead their group, as
they take part in a thrilling race, against the clock, to create innovative ideas for one planet living. Can their ideas transform our future? Welcome to ZΩH.
“There’s plenty of talk, at the moment, about bridging the gap between arts and science, this is a show that actually does it; and provides a good, exhausting, thought-provoking night out, into the bargain.” - Review of Deadinburgh, The Scotsman
HOW TO GET INVOLVED
As part of this production there will be three live performances. An evening show on 13th November and then a matinee and evening show on the 14th November. Each performance is a public outreach opportunity for up to 12 researchers to engage the public on the
issue of biodiversity loss and climate change. Our potential audience numbers across these three shows will exceed 550 members of the public, aged 14 and up.
