About this show

If you survive the apocalypse, don’t you get to help build what comes after? The Forever Wave is an audio experience set in drowned San Francisco, circa 2070 inspired by Dylan Thomas’ iconic play for voices, Under Milk Wood. Drawing on geography, climate science and local Bay Area history it offers a comprehensive look at a what-if future should climate change and economic inequality continue to fail to be addressed. An array of almost 70 voices – survivors and dead alike – are brought to vivid life by a multicultural, multi generational, and multilingual cast of 12.
