Albatross, written by George Devine and Bruntwood Prize winner Martha Loader and directed by Patrick Morris, is a new play commissioned by Menagerie Theatre. Rooted in two years of research and interviews with Antarctic researchers, the play centers on glaciologist Alice (Caroline Rippin) and her mother Eve (Agnes Lillis), who has been caring for Alice's daughter Alba in her absence. When Alice returns home in the middle of the night from Antarctica, she is met with catastrophic floods, unexpected romance, and unspoken secrets between mother and daughter. The play explores intergenerational responsibility and the weight of what one generation owes the next, set against the backdrop of the climate emergency.
