Contemporary drama. In the not-too-distant future, where the air has become unbreathable and the temperatures soar, 12 young people are gathered to hold their parents’ generation to account for the unfolding crisis. Will they deliver justice or exact revenge.
Dawn King’s play, first produced in 2022, is partly a thought experiment, a “what if?” but what makes it so chilling is that this future may be closer than we think. Three adult defendants each give their evidence to the young jury who must then deliberate on their guilt or innocence. The penalties are severe.
This is a powerful play about responsibility that puts the voices of those who have no choice to live with the consequences centre stage. Recommended for ages 12+
