NIE | The End of Everything Ever

From one of the darkest periods in European history comes an inspiring story of survival, love and hope.

Six year old Agata is going to the railway station with her father. Everyone is very happy, only she has the strange feeling that she will never see him again. On the train, tired and hungry, she absent-mindedly chews on the paper name tag tied around her neck and very slowly consumes her name and address erasing any chance of getting back home again.

With a live six-piece band, multiple languages, and an array of theatrical styles from clowning to high tragedy NIE draw on true stories and accounts of the Kindertransport to tell the story of Agata Rosenbaum's journey from Berlin to the UK and her epic quest for home.

The End of Everything Ever is the final part in NIE's European Narratives Trilogy.

"NIE are adept at giving harsh, factual history a touchingly human face. And at mixing comedy and tragedy so as to open our hearts and minds to a past that must not be forgotten." The Herald Newspaper
