Poster for the play The Trials.

About

Light UP Warsash Advanced presents a bold new production of The Trials by acclaimed playwright Dawn King — a searing courtroom drama that puts the climate crisis, and generational accountability centre stage.

Set in a not-so-distant future, The Trials sees three adults prosecuted for their roles in the environmental catastrophe. Their fates lie in the hands of a jury of young people, forced to judge the past to protect what's left of the future. Harrowing, provocative, and eerily plausible, the play demands a reckoning — and asks: What would you have done?

Suitable for ages 14+. Due to strong language, parental discretion is advised.
