Overview

Synopsis

With global warming, political unrest, and an uncertain future on the horizon, one couple debates whether or not they should bring a child into the world. Lungs by Duncan Macmillan is a witty drama that examines the evolution of a relationship as W and M navigate the ups and downs of life together. Requiring little to no set or lighting design, this is a perfect choice for any intimate space. The funny, edgy, and deeply human narrative makes Lungs an excellent showcase for two talented actors.
