PANGEA
Choice was the problem. Nich is empathetic. Clint is aware. Bume is capable. And Harris is special, he stands out. One heart. Your candidates are ready to demonstrate that they have what it takes to win Pangea's greatest game show: The Interview for High Office. One Soul.
Pangea explores the absurdity of politics in a modern day society by subverting the usual political context. One Mind. There will be pointing, there will be empty statements, there will be no vote.

MORE ABOUT THE SHOW
Born as a university graduate show and inspired by Shakespeare's tempest, Pangea is a political satire and clear reflection of its time. The show mirrors the socio-political landscape of the western world in 2018 - a world dominated by Trump's recent election, fake news headlines, sentiments of fear, division, cohersion and the ultimate pursuit of "freedom".
Pangea charmed its audiences through a unique combination of Beckettian language, clowning techniques and techno music. Whilst highlighting the absurdity of living in a consumerist society, where power and control are in fact the true currency.
Pangea won two awards at the London Student Drama Festival 2018, for best direction and audience choice. As part of the festival, the show was performed at the Dutchess Theatre in the London West End and the Pleasence Theatre. Pangea later evolved into a full-length production, produced by Here It Goes theatre company and was featured at both the Camden Fringe and the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2018 for a week-long run.
