Earthquakes in London

This story covers decades, or maybe even centuries, as three sisters live through societal discord and possibly an environmental apocalypse. That sounds like a convoluted plot, but it explores convoluted issues in convoluted times. Says the theater, “Strip shows, overpopulation, nihilism and climate change collide in a world that, faced with the end of everything, chooses to bury its head in the sand.” Yikes. But because John Perrin Flynn and Hollace Starr co-direct this ​​West Coast premiere by Mike Bartlett (King Charles III), we’re betting it’ll also be a visual knockout (scenic design by the gifted David Mauer) and a visceral few hours.
