Colonization – A New Origin

who are we - where are we going - who will come after us

An experiential sci-fi simulation beyond the event horizon, the  gravitational field and the speed of light.

Mankind has always longed to discover and explore new places. What drives us? Curiosity, advancement, adventure, enlarging living space, disseminating human DNA or just ordinary human pride? The colonization of new planets is inevitable in the future. But will the universe be colonized by people?

The newest site-specific performance by the VOSTO5 Theatre inspired by Archa, evolution and Czechoslovak sci-fi comics.

The project is a co-production by Vosto5, the Archa Theatre and the 4+4 Days in Motion Festival.

Colonization – A New Origin was made possible with financial support from the EU Culture program and is presented as a part of the House on Fire program. Translation supported by the Arts and Theatre Institute.
