The world is at crisis point, and change isn't an option anymore; it's crucial. It's time to wake up and smell the greenhouse gases. These original plays, written by some of the University of Winchester's most talented playwrights, focus on the human stories at the centre of the global issue of climate change and make us question our own place in the world.  

At the University of Winchester, Climate Change is always central to our way of working and thinking, and The Arts have always been key in starting up conversations about the big subjects.  

These four original plays, performed in the heart of the city at Winchester Theatre Royal, present one small step on the way to alerting people of the crucial environmental issues facing us all. 

Top 3 learnings:

  • The public are eager to engage in a dialogue about Climate Change. 
  • Theatre is a great medium to put across difficult and disturbing messages in a thought-provoking but entertaining way. 
  • Young people want to spread the message of Climate Change.
