"Who's going to mobilize darkness and silence?" In this eerie and fascinating play, everything is at war with eachother, from man, to animal, to light itself. We are looking for a creative LIGHTING DESIGNER  to bring this to life. Come join the team for the Week 5 Corpus Lateshow!! 💚

    "It’s all going to be downhill from now on.”

    A young girl stumbles into the kitchen, and tentatively questions her aunt about the bloody assault she has witnessed in the night. Several years later, the whole world, including birds, animals, and gravity itself, has descended into war. Facing a culture on the cusp of apocalypse, the girl returns to her aunt’s to seek refuge.

    First performed in 2000, Caryl Churchill’s Far Away is part absurdist drama, part dystopian nightmare. With notes of environmental decay, pervasive violence, and glimmering, hard earned, hints of hope, Far Away is more comparable to our modern condition than ever before, and closer to our generation than is comfortable to admit.
