Description
Classification
A frog, the last of its species, starts calling for a mate, but there’s no-one to hear.
A group of friends reminisce about the last time they took a flight, before all that came to an end.
Landholders in Borneo confront western environmentalists over who owns the forest.
A scientist is coached on how to speak to the media in digestible soundbites.
A family takes to the water, needing a new home, new hope…
A remarkable, illuminating, shocking, wry, and sometimes inspiring piece of theatre, Scenes from the Climate Era is exactly what it says – over fifty small plays that catch the exhilaration, frustration, and fascination of living in interesting times.
This is theatre doing what it was made to do. An invigoratingly honest portrayal of what it’s like to engage with climate change conversations (and be alive!) right this second. ★★★★★
