Lungs

Show Synopsis:
The world is getting hotter, there’s unrest overseas — the seas themselves aren’t very calm — and one couple is thinking about having a child. Lungs is a smart and funny drama that follows a couple through the surprising life cycle of their relationship, as they grapple with questions of family and change, hope, betrayal, happenstance, and the terrible pain that you can only cause the people you love.

The character of "M" is written as a cisgender man, and his gender identity as such is central to the story. We will consider actors of all genders who are comfortable playing this role and can present as a cisgender man on stage.
