STORYLINE

Lucy, our daring heroine with a taste for danger, is last in the bloodline of Frank Matcham, the infamous theatre architect.

In the year 2030, chaos reigns on human connection as military forces declare an unrelenting war on culture, systematically and brutally dismantling theaters and public spaces from within.

Lucy had no idea the fateful night she was blindly walking into by exploring the now desolate land of Olympia. She stumbled across a box with a faint inscription reading ‘Frank Matcham’. With a hesitant hand, Lucy opened the box, unleashing forces beyond her control. What came pouring out was a man, Sergeant Pepper – Lucy’s guide through time for the night.

The Sergeant takes Lucy on a journey through time, transporting them both to the era of Frank’s birth. They witness the rise and fall of history; the turmoil of WWI and WWII, and the ghosts of the past who shaped her lineage. As well as some of culture’s most influential moments, moments people can only dream of seeing, notably Houdini’s great escape, The Beatles live, and fighting to save Olympia from destruction.

Somewhere between surviving history, unearthing her legacy, and fighting to preserve culture, Lucy finds something she never expected. Love.
