Co-directed and co-wrote this devised piece that played to large audiences and critical acclaim. London transfer in 2020 was cancelled due to the pandemic.

In 2012, an anonymous 4chan post sparked a scavenger hunt through old manuscripts, out to locations all over the globe and into the uncharted areas of the dark net.

In 2019, the hunt continues. In the basement of a church, a group of Cicada followers meet every Friday to finally find the truth behind the enigmatic organisation.
