World Problems teaser trailer

Watch the video trailer for World Problems ahead of seeing the production live on stage.

An elegy for the future we’re yet to inherit, World Problems is both comical and terrifying, gripping and cathartic. A solo time capsule catapulting across the ages, it seamlessly merges the most private and intimate reflections with a world-spanning perspective.
