8-bit Dream


Square Pegs – Macready Theatre Young Actors’ Company

Eight teenagers take you back in time to an analogue age when telephones had wires and television was not so demanding. Square Pegs return with a brand-new, life-imitating-art play about growing up, which asks lots of questions about what it means to be human, but offers absolutely no answers whatsoever. Join Macready Theatre’s Offie-nominated Young Actors for 45 minutes of absurdist, fast-paced, fun-filled storytelling, to share time-travelling tales of nostalgia and a yearning for meaning when all seems fake. ‘A short spectacular showcase’ ***** (TheMumble.uk). ‘Another joyous bag of wild imagination, comedy and physicality’ **** (BroadwayBaby.com).
