Welcome to Wilhelm Street. Make yourself at home!
As you settle in with your new family, you won’t only pick out furniture – you’ll forge new traditions and memories that you hope will last a lifetime.
Somewhere nearby, though, there’s a meeting going on. A very important meeting. Run by very important people. Making very important decisions about your lives. But you and your family are not allowed inside…
Created by theatre-maker Rhianna Ilube and BAFTA-winning game-makers Coney, 1884 is an immersive game-theatre show inspired by the legacy of the 1884 Berlin Conference, an often-overlooked historical turning point for the African continent and the world.
1884 isn’t a history lesson – it’s a fun, fast-paced, and thought-provoking journey where play and protest meet. Explore colonial legacies, collective memory, and what it means to be part of the story… or pushed out of it.
