Description
Maddy is worried that no one is having fun at her party. Her sister Lily is worried that the world is falling apart. As this group of friends gather on a mountaintop, watching the sunset, a wildfire sparks in the forest below. They drink beer and talk nonsense while the flames race toward them. From award winners Pepperdine Scotland and playwright Lewis Hetherington, this world premiere is about young people finding fragile hope in the face of an overwhelming environmental threat, carrying the flickering flame of belief that things might yet be alright.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

If you're looking for some easy laughs, this is not the show for you. Nonetheless, you should definitely see it: it's relevant, it's very well written and executed, and it manages to even get you to smile among the tragedy we're all experiencing. This was my first show 2 hours after getting to the Fringe, and I loved it.
