Lungs

Directed by Dinesh Kumar Maganathan, LUNGS, written by renowned British playwright Duncan Macmillan, follows a couple as they navigate one conversation that stretches across years - sometimes linear, sometimes fractured, always brutally honest. When they consider having a child, the discussion spirals into questions of climate guilt, carbon footprints, personal ethics, commitment, and the fragility of modern relationships.

As Malaysia grapples with climate concerns, rising mental health challenges, and shifting family structures, LUNGS offers a precise, unflinching mirror. It speaks to a new generation navigating adulthood in uncertain times. More than that, the play presents a brutally honest take on a flawed relationship between a man and a woman, centred around a very important decision - whether to have a child or not.

Scenes shift instantly through dialogue and performance, creating an immersive, breathless theatrical experience.

LUNGS received its first performance at the Studio Theatre, Washington D.C. USA on 28th September 2011, directed by Aaron Posner in a rolling world Premiere with Paines Plough/Sheffield Crucible. LUNGS was first staged in KL in 2014, directed by Alexis Wong and featured Erin Marie and Jeremy Ooi.  

Advisory: LUNGS contains strong language, and heavy content that deals with relationship and pregnancy matters. Audience discretion is advised.
