Shady billionaires make plans to colonise and mine the solar system, and our nearest celestial neighbour has something to say about it…

A clowning show performed by Meg Hodgson with live sound from Livvy Lynch, ‘MOONFACE’ is a funny and exuberant love letter to our rocky satellite that explores what it means to be human. Expect burlesque and drag-style numbers, testimony from survivors of human-made disasters, and movement inspired by the gravitational interactions between Earth and moon.
You’re invited to help shape the show, making decisions as both a space-race billionaire and as collaborators with MOONFACE, the clown. Created in collaboration with Ilan Kelman from the Space Health Risks Research Group (University College London). Directed by Helena Banerjee with music by Livvy Lynch and Jan Brzezinski. Made with support from UCL Culture, Camden People’s Theatre and London Mining Network.
Please note that this performance contains partial nudity, and discussions of man-made disasters and violent colonial practices. This performance contains moving lights and loud sounds.
