DARK MATTER
Written and Directed by Chris Robertson. Produced by Aimee Dredge
A crew of six journey millions of miles away to the planet of Obiteria, in search of the unknown.
However, at the halfway point on their mission, they stumble upon something that could change their lives forever.
The disjointed group has to face the biggest decision of their life. Should they keep what they found a secret, or let everyone home on Earth know the truth? Terminal illness, and religion are the driving factors for opposing views, but what secrets will be revealed about the rest of the unlikely astronauts.
With only a day before they descend home, a choice has to be made. And it has to be now!
After a successful Playreading in 2024, ‘Dark Matter’ now is ready for the stage.
“Left the table read buzzing. Would definitely line up to see this as a show.”
“Dark Matter is a refreshing piece that demonstrates the exciting potential of a criminally under-utilised genre in theatre. I want more of this.”
“Dark Matter was a brilliant and tense script that had me on the edge of my seat. It had me eager to learn each new piece of information on the characters.”
