The Beautiful Future Is Coming

‘Can you feel it? Something is hanging in the balance – ready to fall.’
 
1854. New York. Eunice sits in what will become Central Park and wonders if something is going horribly wrong.
 
2027. London. Clare falls in love as the streets begin to flood.
 
2100. Svalbard. Ana hears a baby crying in the seed vault.
 
The world is ending, sure. But what happens to us in between?
 
Flora Wilson Brown’s The Beautiful Future Is Coming is a fast-paced, wildly inventive look at 250 years of real and imagined history through the eyes of three couples. Nancy Medina (Choir Boy – Best Director, Black British Theatre Awards 2024) directs this powerful story about the climate crisis, and holding onto hope and humanity against all odds.
