"You are the Endling. The last. After this, it will all change"
Visually beautiful, and laugh out loud funny, Strange Futures use their 'Powerful physicality' (Scotsman 2019) to discuss environmental and species extinction in their new show.
Referencing climate justice and designed to play in intimate spaces, The Endling creates a bond with its audiences through its intimacy, quirky humour and physical ingenuity.
In this pertinent, thoughtful, offbeat performance, Strange Futures ask some difficult questions, without blaming. How can we stop viewing ourselves as separate from the rest of the living world? Should we, perhaps, be choosing to move towards a human Endling?
What if that Endling was you?

The Alma Theatre has been serving the community for 25 years and has never been the recipient of ACE or other funding. Our theatre manager started maternity leave as the pandemic hit and as a result we missed all opportunities for additional arts council support. We have been offering reduced rates, preferential box office splits and extended promo support to aid the recovery from the past year and a half. Your help will enable us to continue bringing fantastic stories to your local theatre. 50% of your donation will go to the Alma Theatre, and 50% to our inhouse company, Schoolhouse Productions.
