The Accident Did Not Take Place

20 & 21 March, 2020

About

Somewhere on the other side of the world a plane is falling from the sky.

You can see it on your laptop. You can watch it happening on YouTube. You can hit rewind and watch it burning on repeat.

With a new guest performer taking to the stage each night, The Accident Did Not Take Place is a hyper-real exploration of the way we consume information, and the way information consumes us. Join YESYESNONO for a frenetic, head-on collision with a world thoroughly mediated by screens, a world possessed with post-truth hysteria, a world yearning for contact with those who seem so far away. 

Shortlisted for the Total Theatre Innovation Award 2019.
