Down to Chance

About the show

One woman, a radio, and the largest earthquake in US History.

Anchorage, Alaska. 1964. A part-time radio reporter, her teenage intern, a general on leave, and a local hobbyist find themselves at the centre of a remarkable relief effort. Genie Chance, live on air, must take unimaginable risks to save her community and family from chaos.

Based on the incredible true story of the Great Alaskan Earthquake, Down to Chance is a heartwarming portrait of a community in crisis with the whole world listening in.

Straight from selling out the Edinburgh Fringe, this 5-star, ‘deftly staged thriller’ (Stage) lands in London this Spring.

Maybe You Like It's madcap new show promises frenetic action, frantic multi-roling, and immersive live sound in this ‘love letter to the golden age of radio’ (Scotsman).

Pleasance Associate Artists and ‘terrifically exciting company’ (Stage), Maybe You Like It, present a double bill of high energy, story driven stage shows that are fast, funny, fluid and filmic.

Supported by Theatre Royal Plymouth and The Pleasance for The Edinburgh National Partnerships Programme.
