FAQs
How much does it cost?
Absolutely nothing! Each story takes a few MB of data to download, but most venues have free Wi-Fi.
What do I need to take part?
The experience requires a smartphone to access the stories, and a pair of headphones to listen with.
What if I have access requirements? Or don't have a smartphone? Or can't get to Basingstoke?
We'd like New Myths to be experienced by absolutely everyone. As such, we've come up with a whole range of ways to make it accessible for, we think, just about anyone. If the experience as described isn't going to work for you, drop us an email and we'll let you know how we can help.
How long does it last? When can I do it?
It takes a leisurely few hours to find and listen to all the stories. It's entirely up to you whether you do that in one go, or spread the experience across a longer period of time.
Is there an order to the stories?
No. We recommend starting with First Matter, but everything after can be in any order. Just play them as you find them!
Is it appropriate for children?
Although it was designed for a grown-up audience, there's no bad language or unsuitable content in any of the stories. It's a self-guided experience though, so we'd strongly advise accompanying children throughout.
I'm coming to Basingstoke especially for New Myths. What else should I see/do while I'm here?
The stories are located in some of our favourite places in the town, so you should encounter plenty just by taking it in.
Who made this?

New Myths was made possible with the generous support of Basingstoke Festival and Arts Council England.
(We're also indebted to the beautiful people of West Lincoln, Ontario. But that's a story for another time.)
