Scenes From The Climate Era

Belvoir St Theatre

Massive artificial reefs. Mirror clouds. Zombie mice.
Beaches where there were none.
A world without aeroplanes.
A lonely frog.

Invigoratingly honest and unexpectedly funny, Scenes from the Climate Era boldly tackles the climate conversation—past, present, and future.

With an ensemble of five, this fast-paced new work moves through over 50 short scenes in just 80 minutes. Each scene feels like a spin of the bottle, offering a fresh perspective on the climate era, sparking new ideas and reflections.

Jam-packed with insight, humanity, and truths (along with a few untruths), it never wags a finger or preaches, instead invites dialogue across generations.

In keeping with Belvoir’s commitment to reducing emissions, this production is an example of how the arts can adapt to a changing world. It’s a night of theatre designed not just to entertain but to stir thoughts and conversations that resonate long after the lights dim.

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. - Limelight.
