VESP#10 The Bunker Experience
9th May 2016 @ 6:00 am - 9:00 pm
Live music and films inspire by ‘The Machine Stops’
Imagine a world where humans are forced to live underground, the surface uninhabitable.
Technology has become the only way to reach out and connect. Pilot Theatre and York Theatre Royal take you underground and into the world of E.M Forster’s ‘The Machine Stops’. Featuring an exclusive live performance of the newly composed soundtrack for the play, composed by John Foxx and analogue synth specialist Benge. Set against the backdrop of York’s own Cold War Bunker, visuals and music combine to explore our complex relationship with technology and what this might mean for human connection now and in the future.
