It is the year 2120, and the Earth has weathered through the slow, but gradual domino effects of climate change disaster - population has been drastically reduced. Four sisters gather at the deathbed of their controlling mother. Things take an even darker turn when mother collapses and an unearthly visitor is a harbinger of things to come as they discover there are greater, more chaotic forces at work in the universe, in this postapocalyptic, family-oriented drama where gods walk the earth with disconcerting agendas. But time is happening concurrently, and while the past informs the future, the present can also inform the past, can the world be saved from total annihilation? Or will humanity reap the terminal gifts of what we have sown?
Please join us for a reading of this frighteningly timely play as we continue to develop it for a fully staged production in 2018! There will be a 15 minute talk-back following the reading, we invite you to stay and share your thoughts about the script.
