Description
The Age of Oil. A powerful exploration of our relationship with this finite resource, set against the backdrop of history and family. Ella Hickson's explosive play delves into the world's collision with oil, revealing the complexities and consequences of our actions. With a gripping narrative that hurtles forward, Oil is a thought-provoking drama that challenges us to think about our place in the world. First performed at the Almeida Theatre, London, in 2016, this critically acclaimed play has been hailed as 'the single most gloriously audacious piece of playwriting of the last few years'.
