Monoliths is a virtual reality experience by Pilot Theatre in collaboration with One to One Development Trust that combines the soundscapes of real locations in the north of England with the stories of three northern women. Audiences will experience three artistically rendered environments based on real outdoor locations. The piece is an exploration on how landscapes can be radical spaces for expression and reflection. The experience melds the real audio soundscape of a location with 3D rendered environments and the personal experiences of women from the region.
Their stories and origins are tied to the landscape where they come from and have grown up. They are monoliths – standing stones – powerful and influential forces.
