In a not-too-distant future people can buy personal cleaners called Intronauts – miniaturised human workers injected into their bodies to carry out essential maintenance. But how much do we really want to know about what goes on inside ourselves? Green Ginger‘s new show is a story of advancing technology, big syringes and a tiny submarine. Taking its cue from classic sci-fi movies and fuelled by absurd visual comedy, animated sets and innovative puppetry, Intronauts offers an intoxicating inner body experience that is out of this world. Join them for a trip that really gets under the skin; after all, what could possibly go wrong?

Watch, as if from the window of a bus, as the big city glides by. See lives converge and diverge as rich and poor share the same streets, each pursuing their own contrasting ambitions. If you ever feel you have to run in order to stand still, or see others gliding through life while you struggle to survive, or experience a relationship drifting apart, or a goal retreating as fast as you advance on it, you will recognise life in the Capital. Performed without words to a stunning soundtrack, The Capital uses moving walkways to create an extraordinary flowing feat of visual storytelling. It turns themes of financial and social inequality into a beautiful, thoughtful and emotionally gripping experience.
