The Beach is a new theatre game, commissioned by National Theatre Wales in partnership with Hide&Seek, one of the leading designers of theatre games. Theatre games are interactive events in which the audience's experience is determined by their own choices. Participants are given set aims, which they must achieve within the rules of the game. Playfulness and spontaneity are the watchwords. The game will start and end on the beach in Prestatyn. The audience will form teams of six, each with its own identity, and each member will be given an identity card giving details of their own role. The teams will be asked to complete six tasks, each in a separate zone in and around the beach. The tasks will be an test of memory, logic, speed and perception. For example, they might be asked to mix cocktails at a silent disco, compete in a race or match famous faces from the town to their descriptions. The name of the game is to bring back Prestatyn's missing generation, and to answer the question 'what would bring them back'? The team with the most points at the end of the game will be given a chance to make their pitch.
