Mechanimal are coming to Oxford with their stunning theatre show, Megalith, with projection from award-winning Limbic Cinema.
Rocks. Beats. Geology. Stone circles. Copper mining. With copper having jet-fuelled technology for the last 10,000 years, a performer and sound artist playfully duet to deep-time techno, metamorphic soundscapes and the Internet of Things. Neolithic flint tools smash stones and laptops in this wildly physical journey to the origins – and 21st century challenges – of mining.
MECHANIMAL is a multi award-winning theatre company from Bristol, creating shows about life on our changing planet. Led by Tom Bailey, it tours both in the UK and internationally. On previous shows: ‘Beautiful, contemplative… a remarkable and urgent show’ (Guardian). ‘Extraordinary… moving and enlightening’ (New Scientist).
