A wild romp through the darkest recesses of the mind as our characters try to navigate a “new normal”.

Morning, 1963. Five strangers wake up in different places in different areas of the world, ready to start their day in their regular lives, undertaking the mechanical routine that human beings do to provide themselves with a sense of purpose. Their entire world falls apart when they find themselves removed from their comfortable environments and placed in an endless void of nothing: the only thing they have is each other's company and the looming threat of nothingness. Ring, Ring! dissects the concepts of modern humanity and how it intersects with technology and questions how we create intimacy in the digital world.

Ring, Ring! expands on the concepts of isolation, purgatory, and “staying apart keeps us together” to present a piece that is socially distanced and intimate simultaneously. The audience is invited to join the characters in a wild romp through the darkest recesses of their mind as they try to navigate through their “new normal” and attempt to bring a sense of normalcy back into their lives. The show brings together an amalgamation of technologies including filmmaking, sound design and choreography, discarding traditional theatre practices to assist in dissecting the concepts of modern humanity and how we create intimacy in the digital world.
