THIS LITTLE EARTH

When Honey’s sister dies, she is left with a curious yearning for the South Pole and endless questions. Christopher knows to question everything. He believes that the truth is out there, but it’s hidden from us by the people in power.

In Antarctica, the most inhospitable place on the planet, where nothing is quite what it seems, their unconventional love story turns into a fever dream.

But will they survive discovering what really lies at the ends of the Earth?

“Hugo Dodsworth’s light and projection […] play magically on the diaphanous suspended blue shards that make up most of Cat Fuller’s set. Skyscrapers melt into permafrost. Irradiated with city sunlight and Antarctic’s glittering blue dark, it should be up for an award.”

- Simon Jenner, Fringe Review

★★★★

“Hugo Dodsworth’s breathtaking light and projection design”

- Livvy Perret, West End Best Friend

★★★★

“Hugo Dodsworth’s shifting, evocative lighting.”

- Mary Pollard, Everything Theatre

“Lighting and projections come courtesy of Hugo Dodsworth, who at first makes masterful use of darkness to create immediate stakes, and later utilises the hanging curtains of Cat Fuller’s set to create some striking images. A sequence in which we see Honey go down the rabbit hole of Flat-Earth theorists online is eerily effective, and a near-finale moment is made captivating thanks to Dodsworth’s electrifying contributions.”

- Sam Waite, All That Dazzles
