KINCollaborative presents
Until Tomorrow
by Belinda Jenkin and William Hannagan
21 December 2012; by the ancient Mayan calendar it is predicted that this will be the last day on earth. Most of us think this is nonsense, but if it were true - wouldn’t you try to set things straight? Fix what is broken? Do something you had never done? Even the flickering possibility of apocalypse is impetus for change. As the clock ticks down to midnight our players shift from hysteria and doubt, to solidarity and spirit – for if they’re going that night… at least they’re not going alone.
Belinda Jenkin and William Hannagan (the acclaimed duo who brought you HouseWarming, a New Musical) bring you an apocalyptic song cycle starring five of Melbourne’s brightest up and coming musical theatre talents. Until Tomorrow is presented by KINCollaborative as part of their 2012 season and runs this May at the Northcote Town Hall.
KINCollaborative is a new production and visual arts company founded on the principles of its
namesake, kinship and collaboration.
Please note: this show contains adult themes, strong language and fog/smoke effects.
