What power do any of us truly have in this world? Part exhibition, part live performance, part immersive adventure - get inspired for 2019 with a celebratory evening of curiosity, collaboration and magic.
12 strangers with 12 different questions. 6 months exploring. One key theme: power. We'd like to invite you to see what we discovered... Expect an evening of surprise, reflecting the Enrol Yourself journey that we've been on. A night diving into 'power' in many different ways - including some very human places. And a chance, perhaps, to learn something new about yourself and your own power too?
Throughout the evening you will get:
An immersive experience including live performance, lighting talks, creative exhibits and some special gifts to take home.
A playful invitation to think about power and agency, explore how these themes show up in your own life and unlock the adventurer inside of you.
A beautiful printed takeaway guide filled with our projects and stories.
Refreshments thanks to the kind support of Karma Cola and ChicP

Reproduction is the only constant in human history - from our beginnings as single cell organisms to the sexual practices we see today.
Many of our social behaviours have been built and altered by our attitudes towards reproduction and the methods of passing our genes on to the next generation. Technologies frequently manipulate this most basic of human instincts to produce new ways to sexually interact with one another.
Our authors consider the future of courtship, contraceptives, conception, childbirth, and some of the things in between.
Join us for an evening that incorporates original reading, performance and live art as Virtual Futures continues its mission to reassert the significance of science fiction as a tool for navigating the increasing technologization of society and culture.
FINALLY All of you reading this have signed up to co-create The Alternative UK. Respect to you for knowing that an alternative is possible. We need your help and participation but know in return that not everyone has the time to do more than they are already doing. Not everyone can put the political work at the centre of their project – but they hope and wish that someone would. That someone is us. Please support our work so that it will get done – not just in a minimalist, marginalist way, but in a real and connected way that will cause lasting change. A one-off donation helps enormously. But a regular donation is a game changer.
