Orbital is a novel by Samatha Harvey, adapted for stage by the company, written by Evie Williams.

This first installment follows the introspective thoughts of a group of astronauts circling the earth on a space station, as they reflect of the futility and beauty of life in its most minimalist and maximalist forms. Inspired by Harveys poetic writing, the company has devised a piece that centres around love, loss and the passion for evolution that motivates humanity; considering the meaning of life on earth whist 400 kilometres away.
