A Bristol Old Vic production presented by Traverse Theatre

1856, New York. Eunice sits in what will become Central Park and wonders if her research into CO2 is telling her something is going horribly wrong. 2027, London. Claire falls in love as the heatwave breaks, and the streets begin to flood. 2100, Svalbard. While an 86-day storm rages outside, Ana hears a baby crying in the seed vault. The world is ending, sure. But what happens in between? A fast-paced, funny and wildly inventive look at 250 years of real and imagined history through the eyes of three couples.
