WonderVisionTM
The Incredible Shrinking Television Repair Man
7 March 2002 - 14 April 2002

The ultimate tale of adventure, WonderVisionTM is the story of an ordinary, everyday television repair man who suddenly finds himself getting smaller. Every aspect of his life is affected as the world gradually becomes massive and threatening, plunging both him and his family into crisis.

Dark comedy and landscapes of horrifying danger menace our hero as he struggles to face the farthest limits of fear and existence.

WonderVisionTM toured Hampshire and surrounding areas from February to April 2002.

"WonderVision was a highly entertaining mix of American B movie and modern morality tale" Newbury Weekly News
