Future Astronauts - Wellington Fringe Festival

Wellingtons latest Theatre Company, Involuntary Stage Rage, pulls together some of New Zealand’s best emerging artists to bring you a highly experimental, off-beat, peculiar, comical and extremely original new contemporary work. Mixing it up with dance, acting, acrobatics and poetry, you should prepare to witness the cutting edge of new arts practice.

Future Astronauts is an exploration of the human race surviving in a world full of Scientific, Religious and Social manipulation. In order for us to discover our real selves, we must first destroy “our selves.”

On the 2nd-5th of March, BATS Theatre will play host to a world of eccentric beauty, filled with bizarre objects, in which the performers will skillfully and ever so creatively interact with.

Come join us
in the late hours of the evening
between the lines of reality and dream
watch us drink from the portraits
of all we could have ever been
see us hang them one by one from the ceiling
discard some arms and a leg
then we will run the bath
and let it flow
like the conversations in our head
that have not yet been said

Powerfully moving and articulately crafted, Producer/Choreographer Kyah Dove’s spectacular debut turns breathtaking imagery, accelerating dance and acrobatics, obscure acting, and way-out poetry into a show like nothing you have seen before.
