What might an equitable, sustainable, decarbonized, and just
society look like? What if the concept of a Green New Deal-a policy
platform to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while also addressing
interwoven societal problems like economic inequality and racial
injustice-could become reality? The fifty plays in this anthology
were commissioned for Climate Change Theatre Action 2021, a global
participatory theatre festival that brings communities together
around climate justice and climate change issues. Fifty playwrights
representing all inhabited continents, with a wide range of styles
and perspectives, were commissioned to write a five-minute play
under the theme "Envisioning a Global Green New Deal." These plays
were then available to anyone interested in presenting an event in
their community between September 18-December 19, 2021. Events
could take different forms from intimate readings in classrooms to
staged productions with extensive sets and props-and everything in
between. In the past, venues have included parks, churches,
schools, libraries, backyards, community centers, yoga studios,
cafes, bars, street corners, and the foot of glaciers. Events have
been seen by audiences as diverse as wastewater and water treatment
workers in Montana; homeless youth in London; refugees in Denmark;
kids in New York City, Iran, and Nigeria; faith communities in
Washington State; unsuspecting passersby in Brazil, New Zealand,
and the UK; and lots of university students in every corner of the
world.
