]]> 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.
