Best Festival Ever

Boho‘s Best Festival Ever is an interactive performance that enhances teamwork and communication, building skills in understanding and managing complex systems.

Using hands-on board game mechanisms, participants plan and manage their own music festival. Working together, the audience takes control all the way from programming the bands to producing the final concert.

Developed with research scientists from University College London, the Stockholm Resilience Centre and CSIRO, the show explores concepts from Systems Science and Resilience Thinking.

REVIEWS AND MEDIA COVERAGE

“Best Festival Ever puts everyone in the moment for every part of the festival manager’s rollercoaster ride and offers a fun, engaging and creative way to introduce audiences to the insights and ideas from systems science.”
— Australian Arts Review

“While working together, playing games with consequences for your festival, and interacting with the narrative, you are incidentally learning more about things like systems science, game theory and more… interesting, fast-paced, and fun.”
— Stage Whispers

???? “The strength of the show is its gamification of complex systems theory, which is explained clearly and engagingly wherever it arises.”
— The Brag

“Billed as ‘part-theatre show, performance lecture and board game’, this immersive experience is a Boalian exercise in confronting the ecological impact of collective decision-making.”
— Realtime Arts
