Voices of Dissent

Society is breaking down. The economy is collapsing. The forces of nature are threatening to wipe out humanity.

Tali doesn’t care. He’s just hungry.

But in the beginning Tali stole fire from the gods to give to mankind, and now the gods are forcing him to steal the fire back – or make humans use it more sustainably.


Voices of Dissent tells the story of Tali’s attempts to save himself by saving the world (or vice versa), and the characters he encounters on his quest - some who help and some who hinder.

The show is lit by the power of an on-stage bicycle, which, as it is a solo performance, requires some audience participation.

First developed as a work-in-progress at Contact during their At Home residency scheme, Voices of Dissent was subsequently developed into a full length piece at the same venue last year, with the support of Arts Council England. It is the first production in the Changing Cycles.

Following a successful pilot tour by bicycle to The Brewery, Kendal, the show is currently being re-developed for a national bicycle tour in Spring/Summer 2010. For bookings contact info@moksha-arts.org
