Influence

Cameras all around. Phones sucking out your data. They are watching you. But who exactly are ‘they’?

A group of friends play cat and mouse with power as they switch off their screens and are thrust into the offline world 300 feet underground.

Inspired by Modern TV hits Black Mirror and Stranger Things, this surreal comic adventure explores the fear of growing up in a world that is not this generation’s creation.

Directed by Ashley Elbourne (Bugsy Malone, The Blue Road), Influence has been commissioned by Derby Theatre, Dundee REP, Leeds Playhouse, Northern Stage, Royal & Derngate and Theatre Royal Plymouth.
