Salty

Salty is a play about penguins and people. It is set in one of the last remaining conservation zoos in a future gripped by catastrophes created by climate change. Animals have stopped procreating, humans suffer debilitating headaches, predators run rampant, and amidst it all, two male Adelie penguins decide to parent an egg in their small Antarctic exhibit.
