THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND THE SHOW

By working together towards a common vision, humanity can overcome the challenges of our time to create a brighter future.

Humanity has jeopardized its environment to the point of catastrophe. Each of us faces an urgent choice: Do we live & act to please ourselves, without regard for others & the environment or do we live with & act for the good of all?

From a utopian vision of the past, through the current crisis & on to a brighter future, Astrea explores this central moral problem in dramatic & visually stunning ways.

The show suggests that a leap of compassion, solidarity & collaboration is necessary if we are to become the custodians (& not the destroyers) of life on earth. The show goes further to marvel at the limitless potential of a united humanity & our destiny amongst the stars.

A WORD FROM ASTREA’S CREATOR SRIKANTA BAREFOOT

Over the first 5 months of 2021, I worked ceaselessly to bring Astrea to life. Given the current ecological crisis coupled with the covid-19 pandemic, it seems clear that humanity is at a crossroads & has an important choice to make; a choice which will have long-lasting & potentially devastating consequences.

I felt a sense of urgency to tell a story to inspire humanity towards a positive direction & to convey the idea that the choice is each of ours; the power is in each of our hands.

Crafting a story without the use of words as well as broaching such a charged subject while keeping politics out of it, required a lot of reflection. I had the additional goal of keeping the show action packed & visually stunning in every moment so that even the youngest viewer could enjoy the show. By using a kind of color puzzle as a symbol, focusing on the human condition & celebrating the beauty this life & planet have to offer, the story of Astrea found its way.
