Perdita - The Last Human

About the show

Perdita is a human child who is born in a laboratory in 2035. She grows into adulthood without parental nurture at a time when the distinction between humans and machines has become blurred and human survival is in doubt. She will become the last human on earth. Through a sequence of poems, Perdita explores questions about subjects including body augmentation, gender identity, work, war and truth as she learns to live amongst her non-human peers. A thought provoking and involving story.

This sequence of poems-for-performance is written by Jane Kite and performed by Jane Kite and John Hepworth.
