SCENES FROM THE CLIMATE ERA

About the show

LIFE, LOVE, AND MAKING MONEY, AS THINGS HEAT UP. Massive artificial reefs. Mirror clouds. Zombie mice. Beaches where once there were none. Travelling the world when aeroplanes are gone. How we deal with big, breathtaking ideas – and the crazy excitement of living in hope. It’s sixty-five short scenes – comic, tragic, and everything in between. Jam-packed with info, humanity and truth, but never wagging its finger in your face, Scenes From the Climate Era is a play about now. About the choices we made yesterday, and the difficult beauty of tomorrow. We read this and simply had to do it, we haven’t had a script that’s generated quite as much energy as this one. David is a climate expert as well as a playwright, and the sheer dramatic impact of his expertise is thrilling, frightening, invigorating. It’s not a play that wags its finger, it’s terrifically smart and human. If you’re looking for something about the big issues of this era, here’s a piece of theatre for you. – Eamon
