About
Award-winning Martha Loader is one of the finest young playwrights working in Britain today. Albatross takes us to the very boundaries of love in the age of climate catastrophe.
Alice, a glaciologist, returns from Antarctica – back home to her daughter Alba and her mother Eve. There’s been a flood, a new romance and now a strange gift. It’s 1.30am. Alba sleeps. Eve has never been more awake. And Alice? Maybe those cracks she discovered in the Antarctic ice have followed her home. And maybe they’re calling her to go back…
Your generation. You owe us a future. A chance at one at least.
Bindweed by Martha Loader (2024)
“Finds humanity in ways that complicate and deepen”
