You Are Invited by Imploding Fictions consisted of five parts performed in five countries across the world via Skype, and the audience had to log onto Skype via their own computers or cell phones to see the performance.

You Are Invited began with a person calling youareinvitedentry, where one was explained how the performance worked, before one was given the next Skype account to call. At the end of each part one was referred to the next Skype account. The five episodes were performed in Norway, England, Texas, Spain and United Kingdom.

Press coverage

Toby Martin, official Anywhere Theatre Festival review:

“You Are Invited is a clever piece and very thought provoking. It is more cerebral than it is emotional; a point of difference to most theatre. I recommend seeing You Are Invited.”
