'Your generation. You owe us a future. A chance at one at least.'
When glaciologist Alice returns from Antarctica to her daughter Alba and her mother Eve, she finds that everything has changed. There's been a flood, a funeral, and a new romance.
Maybe those cracks she discovered in the Antarctic ice have followed her home…
Urgent and explosive, Albatross takes us to the very boundaries of love and devotion in the age of climate catastrophe, asking what we're willing to sacrifice for a better future. Martha Loader's play was commissioned and first produced by Menagerie Theatre on a tour of the UK in 2026.
