Every choice creates a universe

Roland, a beekeeper, and Marianne, a cosmologist, meet at a barbecue. Their story plays out across multiple realities — tender, heartbreaking, and achingly funny. Performed inside the Planetarium’s 8K 360-degree Skydome, this Olivier Award-winning play transforms the cosmos into the most intimate of theatres.

The Venue

Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium

Brisbane’s iconic planetarium becomes a stage. The 12.5-metre Skydome surrounds you with 8K 360-degree projection mapping — constellations shift, galaxies swirl, and the multiverse unfolds around the live performance. This is not just theatre. This is total immersion.

Intimate seating — only 125 seats per performance

“The use of the dome to create the settings forced the whole space to be part of the story. The venue was glorious.”

“A genuinely original new play that is also genuinely and unpretentiously moving.”
