Satellites

A new piece of drama written and performed by Natalie Songer – an autobiographical piece based on her search for information about her two Great-Uncles.


In the year 2,002,018, the spacecraft Pioneer 10 arrives at the giant star of Aldebaran. In 1945, Tom and his brother Cor lose each other in war. Tom became part of one of humanity’s greatest successes – the space programme; and Cor became a number in humanity’s greatest failure – the concentration camp system. Generations later, in this personal, intimate and bittersweet epic of family, disappearance and space travel, their great-niece tries to reunite them.
