“Glance at the night sky and what you see is history and lots of it - not the stars as they are now but as they were when their light left them. For all we know, the North star, our faithful companion, might actually have burned out last January or in 1854 or at anytime since the early fourteenth century and news of it just hasn’t reached us yet.”
Bill Bryson, A Short History of Nearly Everything, 2003
Worlds Apart is a new performance work for 8 -12 year olds that playfully and literally explores the light years between the night sky and the present day here on earth.
