Antarctica

Picture

"What emerges – apart from some of the most surreal holiday snaps you’ll ever see – is a multifaceted work that interrogates the nature and purpose of art at the same time as embracing the all-sorts it takes to make a world."

Matt Truman  'Culture wars'





​"I’m not sure I know how to interpret that, but I did enjoy it and I was entertained."


Lou Clement  'Entertainment Focus'





“A well-written, rollickingly clever and immensely humorous tale.
**** ”

45 second extract from the show. Hotbed festival, Cambridge Junction theatre.
For three and a half months Chris lived and worked alongside the team at the British Antarctic Survey. He discovered that sometimes it’s very difficult to justify your position as an Artist whilst everyone around you is a Hero. 

Antarctica is the coldest, windiest, driest place in the world, home to a few scientists, engineers and medical professionals all at the top of their game. Then Chris came along to make some Art.


Produced by Artsadmin dramaturgy Cheryl Pierce - supported by the Arts Council England.
