KIT Theatre present a half term interactive storytelling experience, for young people and families from Wandsworth.
The show will help children to turn the ideas and emotions stirred in them by the Climate Crisis into an immersive theatre performance which will takeover BAC. Two weekends of art and activism will reach a grand finale with a Climate Action Arts Festival.
The Enviro Takeover uses the expertise of Creative Climate Leader Toby Peach to ensure that participating young people are offered tools and creative techniques which allow them to build resilience when faced with climate anxiety. It is crucial for these same children to learn about the difference that individual actions can make and this project will offer participants agency through creativity.
