Canberra Youth Theatre has assembled an amazing cast to devise, create and produce Retrieval, a site-specific, promenade performance installation through 8 spaces, 5 floors and the dark, publicly inaccessible nooks of the National Library of Australia!

Retrieval takes the audience on a weaving journey deep into the stack of the National Library. On a heroic quest, the audience is thrown into the belly of the beast where an epic battle of MAN vs. MOTHS ensues.

Why do we record and archive our past if we do not learn from it? What are the dangers of digitisation and full open-access to knowledge? It is our collective duty to retrieve the distant and recent past and learn from it but are we ready to go into the dark or unfamiliar spaces to do this? Retrieval challenges us to look back in order to look forward!

See CYT's Retrieval at the National Library of Australia (Parkes Place, Parkes ACT) from 19 November to 5 December @ 7:45pm.

Visit the Canberra Youth Theatre website for specific performance dates. Single tickets from $18 to $75 for a Family Pass.
