The demand for “wholesome” entertainment has been higher than ever recently, but sometimes you have to confront the darkness. Set in a future where nearly all insects are extinct—causing untold ecological devastation—Somewhere follows two sibling scientists tracking the last monarch butterflies in the world to the west coast, and run into a group of farmers preparing for societal collapse. Somewhere promises to be a beautiful and melancholy reflection on the cost of environmental devastation. Originally slated for last year but delayed by the pandemic, the Pear Theatre’s production will be the West Coast premiere.
