'Extinction' is a courtroom drama exploring themes of power, money and self-survival of all living organisms. The adjudicating panel includes the Democratic Counsel, Theocratic Counsel (an angel) the Voice of the Almighty, and a quirky scientist, Dr Sciencestein.
Participants on trial represent different nations, told from various perspectives. Actors take on multiple roles, using props to shift between characters on the World Panel. Testimony is given by penguins, gorillas, insects, and homo sapiens.
Grounded in fact and environmental evidence, the play blends acting, song and dance. Its organic nature encourages performers to explore and expand on current environmental themes, while engaging audiences with thought-provoking material.
As a dramatic work, it allows for creative use of sound, lighting, slides and choreography - giving performers scope to experiment with special effects while developing performance and movement skills.
