About this show

Mother Earth. Who's there, in the dark, when you're lost...? Only time will tell. Cadet Earth is on a mission across the stars. When a sun-stroked tyrant sets eyes on the inbound planet, Earth will have to turn to a new community for support. No matter how small they may be. Find your place in the universe with this light-hearted reimagining of our planet's history, premiering at this year's Edinburgh Fringe.
