Where do they go from here?Written by award-winning playwright Kathryn Marquet (The Dead Devils of Cockle Creek, Pale Blue Dot) and award-winning director and Playlab Theatre Artistic Director Ian Lawson (Blue Bones, Horizon), Second Coming is a tragicomedy of galactic proportions: a love letter to Earth that explores the rise of corporate power, oligarchy, and the urgent need for new ethics in a world driven by boundless capitalism.It asks, with dark humour and heart: if we can't learn from our mistakes on Earth, what hope do we have on Mars?Discover more at La Boite.
