The Generation of Z: Apocalypse Comes to London‏



PERFORMANCES FROM 4TH APRIL AND BOOKING UNTIL 5TH JULY
GENERAL ON SALE FROM FRIDAY 20TH FEBRUARY

After critically acclaimed runs in New Zealand and at the 2014 Edinburgh Festival
Fringe, The Generation of Z: Apocalypse is a high-velocity theatre experience
being brought to a purpose-built venue in East London from 4th April.


Described as “an adrenaline-churning assault of a show” by The Scotsman, this is
immersive theatre unlike anything you have ever experienced before. Audiences
are hurled into the maelstrom of a zombie apocalypse, where the unique story
unfolds around them in real time. Through the electrifying 75 minute show the
fate of our audience lies in their hands, where every choice they make can mean
life or death for themselves... and for the rest of mankind.

The world of The Generation of Z: Apocalypse unfolds within a purpose-built,
labyrinthian venue in Dept W on Mile End Road in Whitechapel. The former
Wickhams department store is an iconic building in the heart of East London,
with its basement spanning over 25,000 square feet. It is here that audiences
must attempt to navigate their way through our apocalyptic wasteland.



Not for the faint hearted, The Generation of Z: Apocalypse throws you into your
very own action movie, where there is no fourth wall and no interval.

Show Producers Beth Allen and Charlie McDermott say, “We can’t wait to unleash
The Generation of Z: Apocalypse onto London audiences. We are creating
theatre for a new generation, giving our audiences an experience and not just a
performance. With film-quality production design, a heart-stopping narrative and
opportunities for audiences to affect the story’s outcome, this show will be like
nothing anyone has experienced before.”


With Executive Producer William Burdett-Coutts commenting, “This production
started in New Zealand, came to Edinburgh where it was one of the fastest sellouts
ever and we are delighted to be bringing it to London. This does something
special in terms of appealing to both a traditional and non-traditional theatre
audience and in terms of generating interest in live work is one of the most
incredible things I have ever seen.”

FILM NEWS (UK): FIRST TRAILER REVEAL FOR HOWARD FORD’S CHILD ABUCTION THRILLER ‘NEVER LET GO’


Here is a sneak preview of what's up for grabs at the Berlin Film Festival later this week - Howard J Ford's (Director/Producer Co-Writer of 'The Dead 1&2") latest epic NEVER LET GO. Shot in Morocco, Spain and the US, the film tells the story of Lisa, a single mother (played by Angela Dixon) who takes the law into her own hands to get back her abducted child. The completed film will screen at Cannes Market in May.



Howard Ford said today: “Having nearly lost my own child whilst on holiday in Malta, I have experienced briefly first hand that feeling of all-encompassing dread as you fear the absolute worst. I became intrigued by this overpowering state that I was in where I would have done absolutely anything morally right or wrong to get back my son and wanted to try and capture that feeling on film. Also, women can endure things physically and mentally that us men could never go through and I wanted to explore this inner strength surfacing and the most impossible of situations”.

NEVER LET GO is a Latitude Films presentation of a Howard J Ford film, starring Angela Dixon, Rami Nasr, Nigel Whitmey, Velibor Topic, Heather Peace, Sarah Perles, Michael Xavier, Samantha Bolter & Lisa Eichhorn. Produced by Howard J Ford, co-producer Laura Jane Stephens, Executive Producer Amir Moallemi, Special & Visual Effects by Dan Rickard, Sound Design by Rob Davidsson, Special Make-Up Effects Max Van De Banks. Director of Photography Travellian Skipaldi, Aerial Photography by Jon Ford. Music by Imran Ahmad. Written and Directed by Howard J Ford.
