Voyage of the Valkyrie-5 :: A Rehearsed Reading by Sam Sheridan

Set in the year 2333, aboard the spacecraft Valkyrie-5, Alayna, Hugo and A.T.L.A.S. (the ships AI) are crew members selected for Project EihwazION Industries interstellar research mission to discover resources and technologies that could shape the next stage of human evolution.

However, after being pulled into a wormhole, the crew are transported to another galaxy, stranded lightyears away from human civilisation.

While Alayna and Hugo often clash, a series of strange, interconnected coincidences begin to surfaceleading them to unexpected discoveries about each other and themselves.

As they search for a way home, they are forced to confront the idea that the future of human evolution may not lie in technology, but in transcending into a higher plane of existence.In a time where were increasingly attached to and uncertain of AI, advanced technology, and the future of our everyday lives, this show explores the value of human connection, intuition, and emotion in a world dominated by screens and systems.

As everything evolves faster than we can comprehend, it asks whether we should be looking inward as much as outwardlearning to feel as well as think, and to connect beyond the surface.
