Life Out There directed by Piers Black

Piers Black is directing brand-new play Life Out There, written by Tim Foley and created by Piers’ company Ransack Theatre.

A barely-functional spacecraft drifts on a mission most people have already written off. When something goes wrong in the silence of space, the crew are forced into a decision far bigger than they’re prepared for…

Life Out There is a sharp, funny and quietly horrifying new sci-fi drama, exploring the ethics of space exploration, human selfishness, and the fragile hope that we can still change.

Life Out There opens at Lowry, Salford on 1st July and runs until the 4th, before transferring to The Engine Room, Wigan, from 6th to 9th July.

For one night only, Life Out There will be performed as a live radio play inside the Space Dome at Jodrell Bank Centre for Engagement on 16th July.

Tickets are available now on the Lowry, The Engine Room, and Jodrell Bank websites.

Piers Black is a writer and director, and Artistic Director of award-winning Ransack Theatre. His play I’m Not Being Funny is running at Bush Theatre until 13th June and transfers to Bristol Old Vic on 23rd June.
