Dark Radio : Dunedin Fringe Festival

Dark Radio

Ōtepoti | Dunedin

Award-winning afterburner present a homage to the Cold War, when spies and nuclear annihilation were stopped by endless sounds from mysterious number stations

Ōtepoti | Dunedin

'Best of Fringe' award winners afterburner (Dark Matter) are back with a new Theatre of Atmospheres experience.


Number stations were used during the Cold War between the USA and the Soviet Union to transmit information across state lines and across the world. Often made up of a random series of words, songs or numbers, the stations existed between the frequencies on the radio dial.


This installation is a homage to those paranoid times when spies, nuclear codes and annihilation were kept at bay by those endless streams of radio noise and number stations.


Dark Radio will take you on a ride into the strange world that exists between the dials, to encounter a sonic and visual haze of information and field agents. Will you be turned? Will you know what to do when you have been compromised?


This is an immersive experience with a strictly limited capacity, so book now to guarantee your place.
