ARRIVAL
This family-friendly theatrical adventure takes us on an
exciting journey around the streets, bridges, greens and
iconic waterscape of the historic Royal Docks. At the heart
of the event are a series of surprising shipping crates. On
the night, discover what the crates behold and immerse
yourselves in a storytelling experience that is filled with
live performance, local people and their stories, music,
beatboxing, dance, water-wonder and filmic spectacle.
All of the inspiration for ARRIVAL comes from the Royal
Docks. The docks have long been an embarkation
place; from the Romans and Anglo Saxons to Irish and
Jamaicans, these new arrivals have brought their own
stories. ARRIVAL will conjure a melting pot of Royal Docks
people, ideas and potential. It creates a picture of one of
the most compelling inner-city sites in Europe, exploring
its rich past and the ambitious future ahead of it.
The organisers imPOSSIBLE and designer and director
duo Jon Bausor and Matthew Dunster worked with
local communities to create this immersive experience
that will delight and inspire all ages. ARRIVAL was
commissioned by the Royal Docks team.
