Impressive new staging of play on climate emergency - loved the actors - subject shocking, of course, but needs to be relayed to the world now more than ever. If it's not too late ... Afterwards everyone happy to not get toooo serious, jolly bar/coffee area where we chatted+discussed the play for much longer
