War of the Worlds – at Blackpool Grand
H.G. Wells’ classic novel War of the Worlds – at Blackpool Grand – retold by imitating the dog. Supported by Lancaster Arts and Cast, Doncaster.
22-25 Apr at 7/7.30pm
War of the Worlds – at Blackpool Grand
Four performers enter the stage with cameras and construct an epic road movie before our eyes. It’s a story we know, or think we know – an apocalyptic tale of alien invasion and the unfolding destruction of everything we hold dear.
Extra-terrestrial lifeforms land from the skies. Lines of Brits scrabble to flee across the channel while their cities and towns lie in smouldering ruins. It’s all of our worst nightmares. What would you do if order broke down? What would you do to survive? How far would you go to protect your own?
Using miniature environments, model worlds, camera tricks, and projection, imitating the dog mix the live and the recorded, the animate and the inanimate to create a thrilling, audacious and timely retelling of H.G. Wells’ classic novel.
