Jordan and Skinner present ... - T187123202A feminist re-telling of H.G. Wells' sci-fi classic. A group of feminists sit in a hidden shelter preparing for the worst. When a member of the group brings something unexpected below ground, they begin to question what they really think the future of humankind will be. Meanwhile, a Time Traveller arrives in the year 802,701 and is discovering for themselves H.G Wells' vision of what has happened to human beings. Dissecting just how bad things really are, where humans might be going and what we can (or can't) do to save it all, the two narratives interweave as the group are asked to confront their feelings of hope and doom, echoing those in seen in Wells' narrative of time travel, human evolution, and catastrophe.Director Caitlin Skinner.

T207113906Inspired by HG Wells' The Time Machine, Creation Theatre takes audiences on a journey through the labyrinth of the iconic London Library, to a world in which time travel has resulted in thousands of parallel universes. Writer Jonathan Holloway pulls apart the novel, re-invents it, and pieces it back together to create a world in which the present is endlessly shifting and the future is strange and uncertain. Travellers tinker with timelines causing people's names, faces and indeed the colour of their socks to change without warning. This surreal and psychedelic adventure draws on cutting edge research, from the Wellcome Centre for Ethics and Humanities, which challenges our perceptions and raises important questions about the future of neuroscience, big data, genomics and global connectedness. Small audience groups will be led by their very own Time Traveller through the Library - where Wells was a member for over 50 years. Expect the unexpected and prepare to be provoked on this journey into the unknown. The performance will take place in groups of up to 20, moving around various rooms in The London Library.Company Creation Theatre. Author Jonathan Holloway. Director Natasha Rickman.
