Something Very Far Away

The critically acclaimed play by Mark Arends returns to the Unicorn following its sell-out run last year.

Kepler is an ordinary man who loves two things beyond all others; his wife Tomasina and the cosmos. When Tomasina is killed in a tragic circus accident, he remembers that the deeper into space you look, the further into the past you can see. Grieving, he builds a spaceship so that he can travel into space and look back on his happy memories on earth.

Something Very Far Away is a strange and beautiful exploration of sadness, mortality and wonder. The show is animated in front of the audience and is told through projection, puppetry and music with no words at all.
