The Ethics of Progress

Thursday 11th October, 7.30pm
Full £10 | Conc £6 | Schools & Colleges £5 | Age 14+

Written by Jon Spooner, Chris Thorpe and Clare Duffy in consultation with Professor Vlatko Vedral.

The Ethics of Progress is a mind melting, jargon free, whistle stop tour of leading edge Quantum Physics, delivered with warmth, wit and charm by Unlimited Theatre’s Artistic Director Jon Spooner.

By explaining in straightforward terms the concepts of Superposition, Quantum Entanglement and Teleportation, The Ethics of Progress pushes theoretical physics into real life situations and imagines the world as it might be in the not-too-distant future.

“I went into this show with a heavy heart thinking the subject would be over my head. I came out wanting to change the world. Brilliant.”
The Guardian

“Mind blowing stuff … a clarion call to engage with astounding developments on which scientists are now working”
Scotsman

A co-production with Oxford Playhouse and Leeds Met Studio

Triple Bill

Thursday 18th October, 7.30pm
Full £10 | Conc £6 | Schools & Colleges £5 | Age 16+

Cave, a quartet, pushes the performers to their extremes physically, with daring floor work, and mentally with its complex and lightning quick martial arts influenced partner work. The work is set to a progressive rock soundtrack by Isis and Noxshi.

Falling Unknown an intimate duet exploring attraction and sacrifice where the female dancers feet never touch the floor in cycles, a solo created as part of the BBC Performing Arts Fellowship in partnership with Swindon Dance. The lone female dancer rolls, dives and twists around the space accompanied by the music of German industrial band Einstürzende Neubauten.

“Award winning choreographer James Wilton presents a triple bill of high energy and super physical contemporary dance. Drawing influence from martial arts, break dancing and capoeira the explosively athletic works will leave audiences on the edge of their seats. Unfortunately for James Wilton’s quintet of dancethletes, dance is not an Olympic event as they would definitely be gold medallists”

Keine Angst

“Sometimes when I’m driving, I shut my eyes. Just to see what that is like. And sometimes, I take my hands off the steering wheel. I put one hand around the handbrake and the other on the base of my seat, and then I hold them there for just a little longer than is safe.” Ira Brand

Keine Angst is an exploration of fear as one of the most fundamental of human emotions, a primal survival mechanism, and the hardest thing to defy. It is a piece about what it feels like and what it means to be afraid, about sensible fears and illogical anxieties. About what fear smells like, about fear as galvanising and as debilitating, about whether it is ever really good to be scared and, most importantly, about how to be brave.

“This is an evocative show that makes its audience pause and think about what scares them. Brand’s curiosity is infectious, and the rhythms of the production, its juxtaposition of the fantastical with the real, makes it easy to relate to. As a whole it makes for a beautiful portrait of human consciousness.”
