Synopsis


Daniel is one f****d-up, neurotic climatologist.


Well, he's really no more or less f****d-up than you. Or I.


But studying climatology will do that to you, given the dark shadows that science has cast over our oblivion.


Now Daniel has a choice.


Knowing how the future looks, can he bring a child into a world at the mercy of cataclysmic changes in climate?


Ian Meadow's Between Two Waves is a vital piece of new writing about one of the greatest challenges facing humanity.


Originally performed in Sydney, Australia this UK premiere is a touching, funny and moving love story that taps into our anxieties for the future and the moral dilemma of bringing up a family in the face of climate change.
