AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'It is the age of extinction. A mad sailor lost in the lands in-between searches for sanctuary. A man with no memory sells faith in the departure lounge where he lives. A Machiavellian deal for the antidote to a poison we have all imbibed. Tackling some of the big issues facing societies today, the play uses metaphors of medical technology and its quest for immortality, the destruction of the world's habitat, and the issues of private versus public in celebrity-distracted society.
