Meta

Meta is the story of young people, their lives and their brains.
Science and art collide in this funny, powerful Forum Theatre show developed with students from the borough of Tower Hamlets.

Neuroscientific findings are shared through physical theatre, video projection and sound design giving an insight into what happens to our brain (and the rest of us) as we grow up.

The show will be performed by young people from Cardboard Citizens Act Now programme, which offers creative experiences to those not in education, employment or training or who have experienced homelessness.

Cardboard Citizens has been making transformative work in theatres, hostels, day centres and prisons for nearly 25 years. They are one of the world’s leading practitioners of Forum Theatre, a type of interactive theatre which allows the audience to change the action that plays out in front of them.

Don't worry if you miss out on a ticket at Canada Water, there will be an extra performance at Richmix on the 20th of March! The tickets are offered on a pay-what-you-like basis and can be booked via our website or by emailing Vicky Ream at [email protected].
