This November
sees arguably the most important global climate conference there has even been,
COP26 in Glasgow.

At Bell Square
we have already shown the work of Dan Acher, a giant flag made up of faces of
people from around the world, entitled We Are Watching, which aims to remind
world leaders that we are watching them as they make the decisions that will
decide our futures.

In Urban
Astronaut, we consider pollution.

Urban Astronaut
provides a glimpse of a future that might be… where problems surrounding air
pollution have grown to crisis point. Is there any way back? What can the Urban
Astronaut learn from audiences now that might change his future?

Combining
stunning design, unseen before aerial performance (using a unique travelling
flying machine that suspends the performer 20ft in the air) with simple story
telling and moving dance performance, Urban Astronaut travels through towns and
cities searching for a solution to the environmental disaster that is present
in our near future.
