Our Almighty Beginnings is a 4 hour epic for 20 actors.
A man grappling with who he is and dragging his wife along for the ride. A family trying to maintain appearances and grappling with the greatest moral quandary of their lives. A meet-cute blossoming into a love story and transforming into a zombie road movie. A nurse trying to keep it together and her patients are dying quicker and quicker. A man charged by God with building an ark for the flood.
The trains will fly off the tracks. The internet will fail. The water will come.
Overflowing operatic language, a world unafraid of its own theatricality, a pageant.
These five seemingly disparate stories come together in surprising ways and coalesce in a speculative fable for a suffocating planet & an ambitious climate change epic.
