Do we? Can we? Should we? A young urban couple consider whether or not to have a child in today’s toxic and insecure environment, beset by global warming and political unrest. What unfolds is a dazzling rollercoaster ride through a shared lifetime. Fiercely funny, disarmingly honest and heartbreakingly poignant, LUNGS is a love story for our generation, for whom uncertainty and chaos is a way of life.
The Quickening theatre Company presents LUNGS, the West End hit by Duncan Macmillan, at the STUDIO Theatre, Montecasino in Johannesburg, after a successful and acclaimed run at Theatre On The Bay in Cape Town.

Critical response has been overwhelmingly positive:
- “LUNGS is like a runaway train you want to be on…” — Broadway World
- “I was disarmed, drawn in, seduced, enchanted and ultimately blown away… Sanda Shandu is fantastic… Jazzara Jaslyn is sublime.” — Weekend Special
- “I was entranced.” — The Cape Robyn
Tickets are currently available through Webtickets and the theatre box office at (011) 511 1988.
