Song of Extinction
EM Lewis’ new award-winning play ‘Song of Extinction’ follows Phan, a Cambodian refugee turned science teacher. He must use his knowledge of extinction and survival to save a student and help the boy’s dying mother. The boy’s father, a scientist, desperately trying to save a species of beetle in South America from extinction, has neglected his son and wife in his obsession. It is Phan’s intimate knowledge of genocide and grief that illuminates the relationships of the American family and ties together the forces of life from three different parts of the world.
