Breaking the Ice by Kieran Lynn
The Arctic is in danger and the only thing that can save it is bureaucracy. Frank Montgomery is the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Chief Scientific Advisor to the Arctic Council. He’s in Barrow, Alaska, at the biannual meeting of the Council in Barrow, Alaska to give the speech that will tilt the scales. The only problem is he has spilt yogurt on his suit, left his speech at the breakfast buffet and been kidnapped by militant activists. Can he make it back to the back to the podium before it’s too late?
Both a clever shot at the bureaucratic chains of command that plague our lives, and a genuinely funny piece of writing * Time Out *
Kieran Lynn is notable for the sheer guts with which he animates big, frightening ideas on stage * The Scotsman *
A tight three-hander… Kieran Lynn triumphs here with a sharp, modern satire on a timeless topic * What's On Stage *
