About
How did we get here? Are aliens real? And can anyone lick their own elbow?
From the curious minds of humans aged 8 to 102 comes Creation Creation – a laught-out-loud theatre experience that dives into life’s biggest mysteries. Armed with cardboard boxes, ping pong balls and unstoppable ingenuity, two fearless creators build, battle and brawl their way to the edge of the universe and back.
Blending art, puppetry, mime and more, Creation Creation is a heartfelt and hilarious exploration of the questions that connect us all.
Part comedy, part cosmic wonder.

Please note some of the big questions tackled during this show, raised and then answered by the general public children and adults we interviewed, include; ‘how did the world begin?’, ’is there other life in the universe?’, ‘how are babies made?’, ‘what does dying feel like?’, and ‘what will life on earth be like in 1,000 years?’. These questions and answers are played out by our performers in gentle, moving and fun ways. Viewer discretion is advised, viewer curiosity is recommended.
