Yet To Be are a performance company based in Exeter in the South West of England.
We make thought-provoking, new and original performance work. Our passion is making shows that are vital for audiences, that ignite curiosity, provoke discussion and that challenge whilst entertain.
Yet To Be were formed in 2021 bringing together Charlie Whitworth of Write By Numbers/ Eager Spark and Marina O’Shea of O’Shea & O’Gaukroger / O&O Physical Theatre Ensemble.
“You place your order and sit down in one of the cubicles. The girl you’ve ordered comes over, delivers the coffee and then ducks under the table to get to business.” Three blokes decide to do an epic grand tour of Europe to sample all the forbidden and exploited delights that the continent has to offer. Performed entirely by women, The Geneva Convention of Human F**ks follows Liam, Peter and Michael on their travels. Sometimes funny, sometimes groan-inducing, the show explores toxic masculinity, sex tourism and the friendship between these three men.
Marina and Charlie want to take you on a Journey. A Journey about Choices. The choices we think we have and we think we make. And if we actually make any choices that matter at all. Sometimes epic, sometimes silly, sometimes loud and sometimes quiet, Yet To Be invite you to Free Will and Other Myths. A show of stories, a show of questions, a show of soul searching and a show of some poorly conceived jokes. Now you have the Free Will to choose to come and see it … You do have that choice, right?
This isn’t a love story. There’s enough of them already. This is about you. This is about me. This is about the way the world ends. It could be a tsunami that starts in the Atlantic or an asteroid that changes its direction in space in a way we could never predict or simply that all the bees disappear. But let’s try to put that to the back of our minds. Something equally important is also about to happen: I’m going to meet you. stories at the end of the world is an innovative coming of age story. It mixes storytelling, science, facts and botched house moves as it delves into memories of growing up, our best friends and how someone can obsess over all the terror alerts, cross-continental pandemics, climate change and erupting volcanoes that the world can throw at us. This isn’t a love story. But it is also about love. Written by Corinne Furness
