Presented by WAM Theatre at Berkshire Museum in partnership with Flying Cloud Institute
In a future not too distant from our own, three female scientists – a marine biologist, a glaciologist, and a soil expert – are being held hostage by their government because of their work fighting climate change. As they are interrogated, the women face the ultimate question: what are they willing to sacrifice to defend the truth? In this edgy, gripping new play by one of the country’s hottest playwrights, just off the West End, Amy Berryman explores the interaction of science and capitalism.
