A Great Big Wooly Mammoth Thawing From The Ice
In Raleigh, NC, Burning Coal Theatre Company opens its new season with “A Great Big Wooly Mammoth Thawing From The Ice,” by London-based playwright Tatty Hennessy.
Inspired by an article from The New York Times about melting permafrost and the real-life recent discovery of preserved mammoths, Hennessy was inspired to explore the unexpected sides of climate change and its effect on personal relationships.
In Alaska, an activist, a tech giant, and an oil driller walk into a bar. The temperature is rising, and who knows what buried treasures she might find in the glacial wreckage.
The world premiere production runs Sep. 29 – Oct. 16, 2022.
