Home > Events > Small World Theatre: Pleth
Information
Step out of signal and into a rare temperate rainforest in the heart of West Wales.
When the mobile network suddenly fails, panic takes hold, screens freeze and the world abruptly disconnects. In the stillness that follows, we pause, breathe and notice something magical beginning to stir. A living landscape inhabited by native fungi, insects, birds and mammals, where the rhythms of nature connect. Beneath our feet, vast networks of mycelium weave through the roots of ancient trees quietly pulsing with communication.
Pleth blends movement, foley sound and visual storytelling with an evocative use of BSL, inviting audiences into a rich, immersive world where the delicate balance of the forest comes to life.
As technology flickers back on, the urge to reconnect with the digital world clashes with something deeper… a quieter, older rhythm that teaches us to stop, listen and truly see.
Suitable for all. This is a non-verbal performance. There are moments of loud sound to build suspense.
