400 years after the collapse of capitalism, the town of Farrago is preparing for its annual festival, where visitors from tribes across the continent will join to share food, stories and ideas. Parents and children are reunited; forbidden lovers search for each other; survivors of capitalism's last stronghold seek refuge. Amongst the six intertwining main narratives, the audience each play characters from the visiting tribes and are free to shape the story as they see fit.
Farrago Bazaar is an original Immersive theatre production with live action role play elements. Unlike traditional theatre, you will be right in the middle of the action, and will have the power to shape the direction of the story. There are two, two-hour shows: an afternoon show at 14:00, and an evening one at 19:00.
Participants will select a pre-written character at signup, and are encouraged to costume to fit the show's solarpunk vibe (there is costume guidance on the website). A feast will be served halfway through the show, with vegan and gluten-free options.
Farrago Bazaar is produced by Red Scare theatre company.
