Preppers: The Show

Thu 24 - Fri 25 February
Seligman Theatre

Presented by Casson and Friends

PREPPERS: The Show is a new piece of verbatim documentary dance theatre, that asks: are we truly prepared? With real interviews from members of the UK survival and preparedness community, intercut and combined with compelling movement, this unique performance investigates how we prepare for, react during, and recover from emergencies. Ultimately it reveals our resilience and humanity in times of crisis, and what we need in order to truly survive.

#AreYouPrepared?
