It's that time of year again...


Support us at

AVANTHARDCOLLECTIVE invite you to join them in the party at the end of the world. The rogue planet Nibiru, as predicted by internet conspiracy theorists, crashes into earth, and NIBIRU! presents society collapsing into the black-hole and having a wail of a time as it does so.

There are many ways to join the party. On August 6th you can join us in building a giant capitalism mother-monster. On August 7th you could be part of the cast if you like – drop us a line – and, of course, you can come and see it.

BUT, times are hard for sailors, and AVANTHARDCOLLECTIVE needs your help to make this show happen. We are looking to make £1000 to cover rehearsal space, marketing, set materials, art supplies, transport costs for our wonderful performers, and costumes. £1000 covers the bare minimum needed to get this show on in the way we want to, but we are more than happy to exceed the goal and for once stop being artists who always have to cut a million corners because they don't have a trust fund. That is to say, past productions like “The Third Policeman” and “Gargantua” were done on budgets of about £500 – wouldn't you be curious to see what we could do if we had £10,000? YES. Yes you would.

NIBIRU! Call for performers!

Greetings Apocalyptians!



I am inviting you to join the Avant Hard Collective at the end of the world. We are presenting NIBIRU!, a techno spoken-word opera about the end of the time, social networking, the collapse of Western civilisation, the office, the supermarket, the widespread descent into Fascism, and the vicious venom lurking beneath the family unit. Sounds fun? It is!


God attempts to shoplift, astronauts visit Tesco, ritual sacrifices, terrible children, protests, riots, and a giant, very happy, dancing celestial body. Join the cast of NIBIRU! and enter realms of the fun. You can be a policeman, cardinal, spaceman, housewife, constellation, statesman, there is space in this production to be almost anything from the domestic to the cosmic.

Rehearsal time will be minimal, with most performers required only on the day of production (August 7th, at RADA Studios).

Listen to the album NIBIRU! on which the show is based.



This project is a continuation of the wholesome community spirit of last year's production "The United Kingdom of Earth: A Brexit Apocalypse", where we reached out to the public of Rotterdam, London and Glasgow to create a wild, unkempt pantomime of the horrors of patriotism. And look how much fun everybody had! 






Join the cast of NIBIRU! at Tete a Tete: The Opera Festival, because you're worth it.
