About Golem
Technology takes over and man and machine become unbreakably connected in an inventive theatrical exploration of modernity. Golem depicts the misuse of appliances and gadgets through a striking fusion of live storytelling, music and original animation.
Golem is the latest offering from award-winning 1927 Theatre Company, the experimental team behind The Animals and Children Took to the Streets, which enjoyed dazzling success with two sell out runs at the National Theatre.
Expect the same combination of vibrant performance and a resonant, thought-provoking tale. Director Suzanne Andrade’s background in cabaret performance combined with Paul Barritt’s stunning animations ensure that Golem will be a visual treat, in-keeping with the company’s signature aesthetic: ‘like a giant graphic novel burst into life’. And the pertinence of the technological focus will engage the whole family -- and leave you with a renewed perspective on all those 'essential' electronics.
