Lucy Kirkwood’s 2016 play *The Children* comes to Lyric Hammersmith in London on 31 July 2026, starring Meera Syal. The production follows two retired nuclear scientists confronting the end of the world. Tickets start at £12.
Lucy Kirkwood's fiercely clever and timely 2016 play follows two retired nuclear scientists at the end of the world, forced to grapple with the consequences of their actions. Directed by Rachel O'Riordan and starring Meera Syal, this poignant, harrowing story explores themes of inter-generational accountability, personal morality, and the environmental crisis, which feel just as relevant to our modern age as they did when they were written.
