“What if you clear the sky and there’s just more darkness up there?”Twenty years ago, the heat became unbearable. In desperation, humanity deployed a planetary shroud that blocked the sun’s light and heat. Seasons vanished, the natural world withered, and civilization rebuilt itself around artificial light. Set in the Waikato inside a chain superstore called Daylight Savings, three young workers and their manager grind through another endless shift. Everything changes when two intruders arrive with a daring plan to bring back daytime.
Daylight Savings is an award-nominated comedy by Melanie Allison. Premiering as a staged reading at The Meteor in 2024’s HIKO! Festival, Daylight Savings has since been developed by a diverse cast for its first fully-staged season. Join us for a heartwarming comedy about the perils of working in retail, and believing in a brighter future.
