Press the Red Button
Audiences are invited to bring to the show their recyclables in order to save the planet and a pound off their ticket. Together will we save the world OR consign it to a black hole dustbin and make a new one?
The fate of planet Earth rests in the hands of four plucky contestants on stage. Using 100% recyclable materials they make the show before our very eyes - buildings, spaceships, casts of millions, contemporary world events all created with old newspaper and toilet rolls. We watch and judge their progress and press our red buttons.
Once upon a time, a victorious game show contestant would walk away with a souvenir pencil, then increasingly to winning lawnmowers, cars, holidays, a million quid. Now it’s the biggest prize of all – domination of the world! The choice is the lucky winner’s – utopia or annihilation.
Watch Press The Red Button – it might be the last thing you do.
Audience participation – public humiliation – all the fun of the unfair
Puppets on the rampage
Hit songs like ‘Grave New World’
Technology of the washing up liquid bottle
Games like ‘Wipe Out’ where you can lose a race ----- of people
