Very Happy Children with Bright and Wonderful Futures
About the Show
Very Happy Children with Bright and Wonderful Futures is the 2024 YPT Theatre Company Play. Playwright, Joshua Maxwell was inspired by the 2018/2019 Climate Strike Movement. Set against the backdrop of Australia’s 2020 Black Summer bushfires, this play is a collaborative theatre project between Jopuka Productions and South Australian Youth Arts that blends art with activism, telling the stories of real youth activists in Australia, and around the world. Her world is dying. His world is dying. Their world is dying. Our world is dying. On the steps of the Swedish Parliament, a young girl sits and looks at the stars while the world watches. On the other side of the world, another young girl, Izzy, is caught between a firestorm and a media storm – both of which threaten everything and everyone she knows. Do these girls have bright and wonderful futures or is the world a lost cause…… Performance Dates Tues 9 July 2:00pm Wed 10 July 7:00pm Fri 12 July 10:30am Sat 13 July 7:00pm Sun 14 July 2:00pm Fri 19 July 7:00pm Sun 21 July 2:00pm Fri 26 July 7:00pm Sat 27 July 7:00pm Fri 2 August 7:00pm Creatives Director - Kate Booth Assistant Director - Campbell Knox Physical Theatre Choreographer - Brianna Budden
