Fish
Set in London in the summer of 2016, when Brexit looms and the world seems to be tilting toward a new and more openly hostile political order, "Fish" follows a young woman whose efforts to escape the claustrophobia of her private life lead her into an international web of radicalism, deception, and potential catastrophe. The play’s many concerns do not always coalesce as seamlessly as they might, and some of its metaphors announce themselves rather too emphatically, but its humor, emotional intelligence, and increasingly unnerving sense of danger make it a distinctive coming-of-age drama.
