In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
An open collaborative workshop space in which games, warm-up sessions, exercises and scenes are potentially the same thing, through which to project your own concerns onto the stage.
In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
