An Invitation to see EARTH ECHOES – THE LIVE PUBLIC SCREENING

A very special live event is taking place in just a few days.

We would like to invite you to tune in at 9.15am on Tuesday 27th September 2016

......to see the premiere of Earth Echoes: A Song of Stones - a creative journey into the history of planet earth

Earth Echoes is a dramatic musical story of geology and the history of our planet. The premiere will open the 7th International Conference on UNESCO Global Geoparks, when over 700 delegates from around the world convene in Torbay. It will tell the fascinating story of our planet through voice, music, performance and multimedia.

Guided by a team of geologists, performers will travel through time and space and into the bowels of the earth. They discover how the continents form and change and track life from earliest earth to complexity of the life we know today.
There will also be a section on the great extinctions which reflects on where human activities started to have a significant global impact on Earth's geology and ecosystems.
