Promising to be one the most talked about events of 2012, BABEL will be a theatrical experience of truly epic proportions. A spectacular outdoor show created for an iconic London setting, BABEL is staged through a unique partnership between WildWorks and Battersea Arts Centre and will feature a cast of 500 community and professional actors and musicians. BABEL tells of a gathering of the tribes. People who have been scattered for an age are returning to finish what they started eons ago. They mean to create a new city. A welcoming haven for strangers. A place to imagine and make the best we can be.
