THIS PROJECT HAS FINISHED INITIAL DEVELOPMENT IN OCTOBER 2025 THANKS TO THE CREATIVE FUND FROM MANIPULATE ARTS.

We presented a 15-minute excerpt at the Snapshots event at Manipulate Festival 2026 on 8 February 2026, with Tim Reid as our Projection Designer.

Premiering in 2027 on the 50th anniversary of the Voyagers’ launch. Looking for residency and funding opportunities!

In 1977 NASA sent two spacecraft, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, out into space. Their aim - to explore our solar system...and then keep going. And explore they did - the Voyagers sent back breathtaking photographs, including the first pictures of gas giants in our solar system AND a picture of our own tiny Earth, suspended in a beam of light.  A moving depiction of our insignificance and unique value in the universe. The Voyagers also transcended what was humanly possible - they are the farthest any human-made object has fared into deep space. Most interesting perhaps, is that they didn't travel alone. Both carry a Golden Record on board - a microcapsule of home - giving any alien life a glimpse into human life on Earth - sounds and images from our planet and the experience of being human.
How can anyone distill human experience onto a record and how to choose what to include? 

Ruxy Cantir and Sarah Rose Graber bring you Voyager - a brand new visual theatre performance, using video projection, puppetry, vaudeville, mask, and clown.
Aimed at dreamers and sentient carbon-based Earthlings, Voyager seeks to celebrate the creative ingenuity of an impossible endeavour - the awe-inspiring experience of being human.
