“There is no message. What the audience needs is honesty.” For more than a decade, playwright and theatremaker David Finnigan has been committed to talking about the climate crisis through his work. Deeply researched and thoughtfully crafted, his plays approach the often thorny topic of climate change with nuanced sensitivity, connecting this issue with what’s happening in wider society. One such work is Scenes from the Climate Era (directed by @yuyangellisontan), which showcases the diverse perspectives around the climate crisis through a variety of conversations. We’re thrilled to present this play in July as the first production of The Studios 2025, Esplanade’s contemporary theatre season.
