Time Out Sydney declares "A History of Everything earns its extraordinary title...a moving reminder of the miracle, for want of a better word, of being here at all." One of the most talked-about theater collectives in the world, Belgian company Ontroerend Goed creates intimate, unique experiences that communicate with audiences in surprising ways. In this production, the artists take on the mammoth task of telling our collective history, from the present day all the way back to the Big Bang—in one extraordinary evening of theater.

Reviews

""This wonderful, inspiring show uses the simplest of theatrical techniques to fill us with awe about our place in history. [...] Part of the great pleasure of this show is wondering how they will do the big events using such simple means. [...] Nothing disappoints. It is all utterly marvellous.""

John McCallum, THE AUSTRALIAN

""A History of Everything offers us a moment to realise how insignificant, though not worthless, we are [...] a clever, engaging and oddly heartening work.""

Lenny Ann Low, SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

""Racing back in time, A History of Everything becomes the story of the evolution of all things, then the story of the planet, then the story of the universe and time itself.... it's a moving reminder of the miracle…of being here at all. An awesome, powerful, inspiring work.""
