Description
The Encounter is a solo performance that weaves together fact and fiction to create a meditation on interconnectedness, perception and time. In 1969, Loren McIntyre, a National Geographic photographer, found himself lost in the remote Javari Valley in Brazil, an encounter that changed his life and brought the limits of human consciousness into focus.
Incorporating innovative technology, The Encounter builds a shifting world of sound, tracing McIntyre's journey into the depths of the online marketplace rainforest. The performance, which opened at the Edinburgh International Festival in 2015, received its London premiere at the Barbican in February 2016 and embarked on a world tour.
With its unique blend of storytelling, research and production, The Encounter is a tour de force that showcases contemporary theatre at its most immersive and thought-provoking.
