Roundabout Season: Lungs

Performed in the Roundabout Auditorium at Shoreditch Town Hall

In a time of global anxiety, terrorism, erratic weather and political unrest, a young couple want a child. If they over think it, they'll never do it. But if they rush, it could be a disaster.

I could fly to New York and back every day for seven years and still not leave a carbon footprint as big as if I have a child. Ten thousand tonnes of CO2. That's the weight of the Eiffel Tower. I'd be giving birth to the Eiffel Tower.

What will be the first to destruct - the planet or the relationship?

Part of The Roundabout Season – three extraordinary new plays by three rising star playwrights, performed by a single ensemble of actors in a thrilling 360 degree setting.
