FAR AWAY by Caryl Churchill - Featured in the Best of Fringe
Far Away, an End-of-the-World “bedtime story” is one of Churchill’s grittiest, most prophetic, political tales that combines apocalyptic imagery with humour and intellect. A young girl asks about what she has seen in the middle of the night and learns it is “part of a big movement to make things better”. Years later, love grows between her and a worker while their artistry contributes to a world where people, animals and rivers are at war. A cautionary tale that rings especially true in today’s political climate.
