Re-connect at Jacksons Lane with The Hive

By Caroline King - April 22, 2014Posted in : Theatre

The Hive - Human Zoo - Jacksons Lane When: 1st – 3rd May 2014 at 8pm

Where: Jacksons Lane, 269a Archway Road, London N6 5AA

£: Tickets cost £10/£8

What is it?

The Human Zoo present The Hive at Jacksons Lane from 1st to 3rd May.

In a world where everybody lives in isolation, is it possible to re-connect?

The Hive is a story about rediscovering human connection, in an environment where over time people have become totally reliant on technology.  Set in a parallel world where WWII results in global nuclear fallout, and with the Earth’s surface rendered uninhabitable, survivors are forced to live underground.

Exploring this idea through the use of puppetry, story-telling, poetry and choreographed movement, The Human Zoo bring to the stage a show which is visually spectacular; cutting straight to the centre of what is rapidly becoming a modern day dilemma.

What are we left with when technology fails?
