Not the End of the World

"The end of the world is a busy time if you mean to outlive it."
Produced and presented by UCL Drama Society
Hosted by The Cockpit

Not the End of the World is based on the ancient religious story of Noah’s Ark. McCaughrean and Reade reimagine the reality of the flood story and this production's original score draws on religious music from around the world.

Through the perspective of the women on board, this play investigates the pressures of being the last people on Earth and of fulfilling your religious duty. Within the familial microcosm of the Ark we witness the rise of religious extremism in a rapidly deteriorating environmental milieu.

Not the End of the World is a physical esenmble peice about climate change and how this is forcing people to flee natural disasters as refugees in search of a better life.
