Super Connected LIVE

Is it time to break up with our phones?

A return of the stage adaptation of the critically acclaimed album by Tim Arnold, ‘Super Connected’ is an art rock Black Mirror-esque show fusing film, live music, and theatre about the ticking time bomb of social media & big tech.

As the film rolls, Arnold performs on stage & screen accompanied by pianist Sarah Kershaw. With the scale of Radiohead & panache of Bowie Super Connected LIVE is a digital age take on the silent movie. With narration by Stephen Fry.

Full of wit, wisdom & terror, the show explores a family’s struggle with technology addiction.

Being pulled in & out of the screen by the attention-grabbing characters, Arnold grapples with what connection & intimacy mean in a digitally distracted world.

"Any piece of art should have the audience leave with more than they entered the room with. Super Connected definitely succeeds : it is a hugely significant piece of work, containing a vital message, carefully constructed and brilliantly performed. Outstanding” – UK Fringe Review ★★★★

“‘A mammoth triumph, through Tim Arnold's immaculate songwriting and Kate Alderton’s superlative artistic stage direction. A reformation of the art of album-crafting”
– Brighton and Hove News ★★★★

“A lush, dynamic and dramatic piece about the enslavement and surveillance of our phone and computer screens” - Mojo ★★★★

"Super Connected is like a warning from the future... remarkably poignant, funny, ominous and heartrending” - R n R ★★★★
