Thoughts on LUNGs from Duncan Macmillan: “(I wanted to ) write a play that was direct, clear, fast, fun, and most importantly, stylistically more pared-back. I wanted to write something for two really good actors where they could tell a story unmediated by props, scene changes, costume changes, mime, lighting or sound queues, just two bodies in space, letting the audience fill in the gaps. It seems appropriate somehow that the play is as “carbon-neutral” as possible. I also felt that the playfulness of the form would help to make some of the more troubling issues more palatable. I wanted the audience to feel as if they were eavesdropping on a very private conversation between two thoughtful, educated, middle-class people who are struggling to do the right thing. I wanted to write a play which was dramatically active but where the narrative isn’t compelled by unraveling a lie or a secret. For me, drama is about live decision making. There are no secrets, everything pours out of them, uncensored, impulsive, raw.

‘Excellent script, performances, design and direction...Infused with mirth and satire...Lungs is a must-see…’

LUNGS is Like a Runaway Train You Want to Be On…The chemistry between Sanda Shandu and Jazzara Jaslyn is tangible…LUNGS is definitely a show to watch!’
