FOREVERLAND

About the show

In the very near future, Alice and Jay decide to undergo a new form of gene therapy which will radically extend the length of their lives. They’re optimistic, hoping the decision will lead to perfect careers, the perfect relationship, and most of all, a perfect family. Life’s good. And you can’t get enough of a good thing, right? Part sci-fi thriller, part relationship drama, Foreverland is a gripping story about the future of biotechnology, which asks what makes a good life, for this generation and the next. Foreverland is by Emma Hemingford, whose previous play Flinch received numerous four-star reviews. Emma’s work has been shortlisted for multiple prizes and been performed across the UK. Foreverland was shortlisted for The Papatango Prize in 2021. This is its premiere production.
