Further InformationNumber of performances: 15. / Preview on 8 June 2010. / About the adaptation (source: Theatre Inconnu’s website): / "In Graham McDonald’s re-imagining of the play (...) we are thrust into one 24-hour period in September of 2012 to view a world that is over saturated with fear propagated by Government, Corporations, The Media, and your Next Door Neighbour. Escalating global environmental cataclysms of various forms (earthquakes, volcanoes, industrial waste, dust storms, armed conflict) are grinding life as we have come to know it to a halt. With the Mayan calendar date of December 21st, 2012 just around the corner, we are forced to question of whether or not we are in fact approaching the end of civilization."
