Introduction

The show that we''re about to do is a story about the future. The story that we''re going to tell is the story of us; the story of our future. It''s a story that we are going to tell together. I hope that sounds okay.

About the Work

From the makers of Five Encounters on a Site Called Craigslist and the accident did not take place comes an act of communal storytelling. There''s a baby born in a lighthouse, a man on fire in the middle of the desert, two lovers reunited in a ruined city, there''s a dying spaceship on the edge of a black hole.

Theme and Content

we were promised honey! is a hopeful, hopeless prophecy for humankind. A meditation on inevitability, despair and how we tell a story when we already know the end. This new edition includes a foreword written by Katie Hawthorne.

Publication Details

This edition was published to coincide with the production at London''s Soho Theatre in November 2022, following a successful run at Edinburgh Fringe 2022.
