This is the video trailer of Remote Patrol

Check out the photo gallery of the show here.

Remote Patrol was the first in a series of Patrols to be set across the world into the future. Audiences discover site-inspired static and performed installations during 90 minutes of promenade. We are always on the look out for the next site to be awakened. Let us know if you find it!

 

 

 

 

 

Extreme-eco-twisted-outdoor-once-was-theatre. The passing of time has left memory-scars in the landscape. As our ancient green and pleasant land is pillaged by a greedy pursuit of wealth, stories wake up from their long sleep and glimpse the future. Limber up and be a part of the team who put the world back in-kilter.
