WRITTEN & DIRECTED BY DAVID BRADY
Cheer up. It’s not the end of the world. Is it?
In the split second before a rare (and frankly inconvenient) cosmic event tears Planet Earth to atoms, the last human alive experiences one final moment of consciousness. A one-way rollercoaster ride to the edge of the apocalypse as life, death and the universe collide one final time…
As the atmosphere evaporates, the oceans boil and the world burns, you’re invited to join us to wave goodbye to the past, live in the moment, and celebrate a future that will never come to pass, as one man hurtles from the Last Gasp to the Big Bang and back again.
And you’ll never guess what happened next...
And If The Surface Tension Breaks is a brand new show about the end of the world, living for the moment, and the mother of all goodbye parties from critically acclaimed Proforca Theatre Company and the team that brought you Feel, At Last, and the Offie-Nominated creatives behind Lately (2021) & Flashbang (2022/24).
CONTENT ADVISORY: Contains strong language, adult themes, sexual references and the end of the universe.
