What if children refuse to be complicit in the reality that adults create for them?
We Are Not Finished is an outpouring of fury and hope intercut with movement, images, sound, music and light. Performed by a company of young people, it lays bare their fears and dreams as they face a future on the brink of chaos and collapse.
At a time when the world needs radical solutions and new ways to live, We Are Not Finished explores what we might learn from a group of ordinary young people who are invited to speak, about our present and their future.
This work builds on previous projects we’ve made with children as co-creators, collaborators and performers such as On Ageing in 2010 and ten versions of Men & Girls Dance since 2015.

Can there be a different future?
It’s a piece I’ll never forget. I wish I made it and could watch it again and again
