In a fix: Do we owe future generations a better world than we’re leaving them? The Children, Live Arts’ latest production, explores this real-world question through the lens of three retired nuclear scientists. In a post-nuclear world, Hazel and Robin are trying to live a normal life despite radiation pollution and rationed electricity and water. Their shaky peace is rocked when Rose, a former colleague they haven’t seen in 38 years, reappears, ready to fix what they have created. Tragic yet humorous, The Children is full of surprises and twists that will stay with you.
