Time Travellers: an immersive short story show
Durham Palace Green Library,Durham University
Thursday June 22nd 2017
Time Travellers is an immersive short
story show exploring fiction about time travel and fiction as time travel. It
is created by Ark in response to the new exhibition Time
Machines - the past, the future, and how stories take us there at Durham University's Palace Green Library.
The audience will be led
on a journey around the exhibition and library spaces to experience live
performances, audio installations, music, shadow puppetry and film. You will
discover short stories by writing giants such as Neil Gaiman and Ursula K. Le
Guin, and a brilliant musical rendition of The
Time Machine by Laurence Owen and Lindsay Sharman. You will even
get the chance to contribute your own stories as you travel through the fourth
dimension.
You are invited to arrive
up to 30 minutes prior to your performance time to have a drink and join in
with a literature-based craft activity. A pay bar will be available. Over 18s
only.
Ark is an experimental live literature
project to stage immersive short story shows in library spaces involving
creative cross-arts collaborations. Connect with us on Twitter or Facebook.

the exhibition and Palace Green Library is here.
