Climate Action Ensemble Project
Supported by SBCAN
(Scottish Borders Climate Action)
Do you feel Anger, Fear, or Disconnection
from life because of our uncertain future?
Instead of being overwhelmed, get involved and transform your feelings into Theatre of resistance!
Climate Action Ensemble is a response to the complex and difficult experience of being a young person who is aware and wants to make their voice heard.
We use theatre practice; actively engaging with likeminded people, to slide-tackle the climate crisis.
Three days of workshop with trained theatre maker and budding rebel clown Lukca Henry Best, leading to devising a Forum theatre performance, inspired by Augusto Boal’s Theatre Of The Oppressed, that poses a problem and then demands the audience suggests solutions for the protagonists to act out.
A second performance will take place the following weekend, on Sunday 27th September, with a final day of developing the show before meeting a larger audience. Disrupt and start discourse!
Camaraderie. Complicité. Esprit De Corps. Climate action Ensemble!
