Following its debut at Push Festival, Rimini Protokoll's Best Before arrives at the ICA this summer for its London Premiere. In true Protokoll style, audience and practioner collaborate to create a unique experience that endlessly and engagingly cross the tracks of the real and the imagined. Best Before pulls the multi-player video game out of the virtual realm and plugs it into an intimate theatre setting. Each audience member navigates an anonymous avatar via a gaming pad, to interact with a panel of on-stage experts - an electronic artist, a game tester, a politician and a traffic flagger. As audience and panel clash, collude, remonstrate, a simulated city, BestLand, gradually develops. Taking its inspiration from Vancouver's gaming industry, BestLand lives and dies through a decision making process that encompasses the personal, social and political. The Canadian based company, Rimini Protokoll creates theatre of Münchausian escapades, presenting distinctive works that feature non-actors, or rather "experts in daily life", and has attracted wide-spread acclaim throughout Europe for their often disconcerting, always inspiring works that tread a fine line between the fact and fiction.
