Climate Cabaret

About the show

Finally, art about climate change that won't make you dissolve into a pit of anxiety.

Welcome to the cabaret of the future, a clubnight of optimism.

We are facing an unprecedented climate apocalypse.

Yeah, we know. Thanks. At the brand-new devised Climate Cabaret, we are taking a different approach.

We're asking: how can we talk about the future without fear? Instead: with optimism and action and wonder.

Expect a something-for-everyone variety show, spanning live music, comedy, dance, poetry, and more. Expect biodegradable glitter and recycled jokes. Expect to leave invigorated about the future - and how to get there.
