Feminist sci fi drama by New Zealand-based writer returns to Edinburgh Fringe
One failing spacecraft - and two female astronauts fighting to save the earth is the premise behind the play "Alone", by New Zealand based writer, Luke Thornborough. It's currently making a re-appearance at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in a new streamlined version. The play has toured widely in New Zealand and Australia in past years, but this revisited version is being described as particularly relevant in a world where science is politicised, and climate change is being felt more and more. British born Thornborough, who lives on Great Barrier Island helping to restore native ecosystems, has taken this production to Edinburgh in collaboration with Alchemy Theatre, a Paris-based, female-led, international company. Staying up late to join us are Luke Thornborough and Alchemy Theatre's Charlotte Pleasants - formerly from Wellington, who is co producing.
