1 Bishop StreetStep into the forest, awaken the magic, and become part of a ritual to save the world.
Join Portsmouth artist collective one000plateaus for "Rituals for Earthly Survival," an immersive audiovisual experience that invites you to step into an enchanted forest unlike any other. Inspired by the Japanese art form of Butoh, this unique event fuses video, sound, movement, and scenography to create a mystical journey where you'll encounter forest spirits, forage for tree seeds, and become part of the magic.
Local artists from the one000plateuas arts collective have come together to bring you an experience that blends immersive projections, 360° soundscapes, and interactive encounters. As you move through the forest, you will find yourself entangled in the world of "The Children of the Compost"—a place where humans, plants, and the more-than-human are one. It’s a playful yet mysterious invitation to reconnect with nature, feel its rhythms, and rediscover your place within the delicate web of life.
Tickets are free, but spaces are limited—register now to secure your journey. We also welcome walk-ins on a first-come, first-served basis, but registering will ensure you have a spot at the time of your choosing. You will need to arrive 5 minutes before your timed entry slot or we may pass your tickets onto the wallk-up queue.
The experience lasts as long as you want it to, you may come and go as you please, we estimate that most people will want to spend around 15 minutes in the experience.
Note: This experience may not be suitable for very young children, it will include loud sounds, bright flashing lights, and moments of darkness. The experience may include optional light interaction with actors and movement artists. The venue is wheelchair accessible but there is limited access for mobility scooters.
Rituals for Earthly Survival is a We Shine Portsmouth event supported by Lottery funding from Arts Council England with additional funding from Sasakawa Foundation and Japan Foundation.
Expect the unexpected, immerse yourself in the magic, and experience a new way of seeing the world. Join us, and let the ritual begin.
