New Writing, Drama

We Love and Then We Drown

The world is on the brink. Few can doubt that. But what are any of us really willing to do – or to give – in order to hold back the tide? Charting the course of one all-too-possible 21st-century life, Ruth Gilligan's thrilling, audacious, new play encourages us to think the unthinkable: to save the world as we know it, how much are we each prepared to sacrifice – not just for ourselves, but for those we love? And, what if we fail? Will those sacrifices still then seem worth it?
