Luminarium

About this event

The world didn’t end in a bang—but in a slow, smoggy sigh. Centuries of pollution have left the planet scarred, and humanity now survives in scattered pockets, clinging to the remains of a livable environment. Enter two workers from the Luminarium Revitalization Company: suit-clad specialists with a mission to breathe life back into the world, one dead facility at a time. Their latest assignment is a long-forgotten factory scheduled for retrofit. The task? Rip out outdated systems and install cutting-edge clean tech. Simple. Efficient. By the book. But the job doesn’t go as planned. As the workers settle in, things start to glitch—and so do they. A game here. A challenge there. Before long, they’re goofing off and rediscovering the joy of simply playing. And just when they improvise a new biotech solution catastrophe strikes... everything crashes. The lights go out. The mission fails. Silence. Then—an unexpected glow. A light in the dark has been there all along. With curiosity (and a few more experiments), the workers make an astonishing discovery. One that may hold the key to a new future. Luminarium is a wordless, visually captivating show that fuses juggling, physical comedy, a Sunday, January 17, 2027 at the Mary Winspear Centre, Sidney.
