Annihilation

An expedition to your own special self A biologist joins a mission to Area X, a forbidden zone where nature has reclaimed the land. Previous expeditions ended in disappearance, madness, or collective amnesia. She keeps a field diary, and returns. But is she the same? Does she still coincide with the person who left? What happened in Area X is reconstructed via an interrogation. But the material refuses to organize itself. Reality shifts. The scientific method reaches its limits. And then nature looks back. Thomas Ryckewaert - biologist and theater maker - and performer Ika Schwander adapt Jeff VanderMeer’s cult novel Annihilation into an immersive labyrinth of shifting memories. A performance about a reality that cannot be understood, created by two makers who work at the intersection of science, horror, and the unimaginable. "Our instruments are useless, our methodology broken." This performance (from the blue column) can be combined in a package! Choose 4 performances from our selection and enjoy a 20% discount.
