High school is rough. Climate change is rougher.
(Kesha still rules, though.)
Set thirteen years in the future, The Amphibians takes place in west central Florida shortly after we’ve passed the point of no return in the fight against climate change. When two high-schoolers unearth a wondrous discovery in the woods, they learn hard lessons about the evolution of friendship and what it means to take care of something at the end of the world.
The Amphibians perfectly balances a coming of age tale of two young women soon to enter the next chapter of their lives and the haunting understanding that the world they are stepping into is dying. This is an extremely relevant, visceral, funny, and heart wrenching piece that will leave you thinking about the future and the fragility it can hold.
Please note that the play contains themes and topics including climate change and death. There is adult language that may not be suitable for children.
