The Children by Lucy Kirkwood

A taut eco-thriller from one of Britain’s hot new playwrights.  A tsunami devastates England’s eastern coast, leaving in its wake a nuclear disaster at a nearby power plant.  Hazel and Robin, two retired scientists, have retreated to their summer cottage in the Exclusion Zone, hoping to patch together the semblance of a normal life.  But a surprise visit after 38 years from Rose—a colleague from their previous life—reignites past frictions and begs the mysterious question: why has she come?

Featuring: Ruth Alexander, Coralie Cairns and David McNally
