    Tassos Stevens and Matthew Hawn: Romancing the Book, the story of "Evergreen"

    Join Coney's Tassos Stevens (director) and Matthew Hawn (commissioner), as they discuss "Evergreen," a sprawling three-month adventure inspired by Matthew's wife Molly's love of children's literature and the couple's 20th wedding anniversary. After captivating 40,000 people with "The Golden Key" in Autumn 2023, legendary theatre company Coney embarked on a unique challenge: crafting an intimate experience for just two people. Launched with a sprig of spruce and a mysterious text at the Victoria and Albert Museum, Coney used dramaturgy and technology to send the couple on a seemingly serendipitous race against an ominous antagonist to recover four magical keys hidden around the UK.   This talk was recorded at the Immersive Experience Network Summit in October 2024 and is supported by Arts Council England and our industry partners Illusion Design & Construct, Mance Communications, White Light, Deterministic, Immersif, d&b audiotechnik, Scene2, Little Lion Entertainment, Entourage, and Vista Insurance.
