'She says: we're going to play a game. It's a game where you're on a lifeboat and there isn't enough food to go round. Somebody will have to be sacrificed for the greater good of the group. Make your case for survival.' 2009 marks the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth, and so Tinned Fingers ask you to raise a glass and journey with us on an exploration of extinction, and survival. How do we interact with 'the wild'? Are we still evolving? Have we lost our natural instincts? Our Fathers' Ears is a participatory performance that invites the audience to move through the space and use light to help construct scenes, to navigate stories, and to choose their survivor. 'Tonight we are becoming a family. We have read about natural selection. We are prepared for survival. We have our grandmothers' eyes and our fathers' ears. We are forming a pack, and we'd like you to be part of it.'
