Julienne Restall: On Shifting Ground

One small Girl.

One BIG decision.

Zee is waiting- in fact, she just can’t wait any longer. She, like everyone else in her society, is destined to tread, and keep treading, for the rest of her life. In this world entirely constructed by the illusion of binary choices, follow the wanderings of Zee Sparkwad as she penetrates the reality she became all too familiar with upon discovering her ‘agency’.

This is a fast-paced physical theatre show set in a dystopic, science-fiction universe, with original music suitable for all ages.
