Not Not Not Not Not Enough Oxygen

The year is 2010. An oxygen shortage ravages the Londons; a thick and poisonous fog that prevents anybody from going outside without a gas mask. Fanatics kill themselves in the streets to protest the ‘issue of the week’. Vivian, who doesn't watch the news too often, tries to live the best life she can with Mick. Mick, an old man, stays in his cramped apartment studio, wishing he could leave the Londons for somewhere with clean air. His son, Claude, has gained money and fame in these trying times as a celebrity with a lucrative music career. But when Mick asks Claude to visit him and Vivian, secrets are revealed, and one of them will not live to breathe another day. Caryl Churchill's gripping narrative and beautifully written dialogue create an unforgettable experience that first premiered as a radio drama in 1971. A commentary on climate change, the bystander effect, and many other issues written 40 years ago that still apply today.

This amateur production of “Not Not Not Not Not Enough Oxygen” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
