FURTHER THAN THE FURTHER THING                 


This story takes place in 1961 on Tristan da Cunha, the most remote island in the world, where the inherent eruption of its volcano forces an isolated community to leave their home and move to industrial England.

In the same way that Tristan da Cunha’s ground of black volcanic sand is pulsing, two big platforms were stirred by the ensemble throughout the show, working not only as a design solution to the problems proposed by the play and the space, but also as one of the main storytelling devices.
