1884
Welcome to Wilhelm Street. Make yourself at home! Settle in with your new family and begin to forge new traditions and memories to last a lifetime.
Somewhere nearby, though, there's a very important meeting going on, with very important people making very important decisions about your lives. But you're not invited... nothing to worry about.
Created by theatre-maker Rhianna Ilube and BAFTA-winning game-makers Coney, 1884 is an immersive show inspired by the legacy of the 1884 Berlin Conference, an often-overlooked turning point for the African continent and the world.
