GROUND CONTROL

 

Directed by Bridget Balodis

​

GROUND CONTROL premiered at Northcote Town Hall in May 2016 as part of Next Wave Festival, it went on to tour to Brisbane Festival's Theatre Republic later that year. 

​

Part science experiment, part love story, GROUND CONTROL takes our world and fast forwards it 100 years into the future, spitting it back with a grimace. A furious, experimental comedy about violence, the technological singularity and long-distance relationships.

​

“…a taut and devastating, yet often frankly funny and beautiful, look at the future of our world—and an exhilarating look at the future of our theatre”

– Jane Howard, RealTime

​

“The script is so clever and the stage-craft and performances so compelling that every moment of the show requires focused, embodied attention. Only once it was over could I process the enormity of what I’d seen…”

– Georgia Symonds, ArtsHub
