Watergate
The mystery of Time Crypts
Interactive theatre game about the negative effects of climate change. Our story takes place in two similar Time Crypt, that come from an imagined future, an age when humanity’s drinking water supply has decreased drastically. Our audience are not passive spectators, but active participants of the game, revealing some details of the impending social and climatical catastrophe themselves with the help of messages from the future. Whether their mission succeeds, whether they can prevent a forthcoming danger, depends on them. The future is in their hands.
Created within the framework of PlayOn! international project co-funded by the Creative Europe Program of the European Union.
