Become a guest at The Embassy of New Great Britain, a fictional reality, where the senses are stimulated and the imagination is intoxicated. An evening of satiation where you can indulge in luxury: a live string quartet, cocktails, tastings, performers and other pleasures.
What if we enjoy this virtual reality more than reality itself? This exciting new work from Josh Armstrong (Little Match Girl Passion) questions our values and desires in our present world and for the future.
