‘The idea that all of this will end in a catastrophe over which we have no power, that’s a given, that is a familiar and strangely comforting fact’


Geneva, 2008. Alice is a scientist. She spends her days doing the most exciting scientific work of her life. Jenny is her sister. She spends her days Googling and worrying. While Alice's work on the Large Hadron Collider threatens possible destruction of the universe, her family life is falling apart already. With a grieving Jenny’s sudden arrival back into Alice’s world in Geneva, both sisters are forced to reckon with their perceptions of what is order and what is chaos, what is knowable and what is uncertain.

Mosquitoes is a play about families and particle physics. Personal and cosmic tragedy. Our (lack of) belief in each other and in our universe.
