Ground Control is a unique interactive performance for 7–12 year olds by non zero one. It has just finished a run at the National Theatre.
You are Ground Control, and Futuretron is asking for your help to decide the future of a new planet. Here’s the situation: in 1974, a manned mission was sent into space to look for inhabitable planets. Now, in present day, the sensors aboard Shuttle X27-40 indicate that it may have found just such a planet. The three astronauts on board are about to be woken from their hypersleep …They need your help. Using a giant projection screen and a live, highly intelligent computer (well, Futuretron), you will be part of a team deciding on an identity for the planet, its laws and values. No adults allowed!
Tickets £7.50. Part of the Heads Up Festival, get tickets on their website here.
