    Everyone becomes a mushroom - sooner or later.

    In a world ridden by overpopulation and ecological destruction, the earth has started to reclaim its agency.
    Amidst the chaos of the human population turning into fungi, two friends meet in the forests to play games and talk philosophy.
    Will their friendship withstand the changes yet to come?

    'this is not about death.' is a multidisciplinary performance about friendship, humanness and expanding beyond the human.

    This performance is part of Form(at) Festival: 2022 | Back in the Room, celebrating work made by students on MA:ATP (Advanced Theatre Practice) at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.

    “British theatre would be completely stymied without tiny, under-resourced venues such as CPT, which are a critical part of the theatre ecology.”
