Greenhouse Playlab: A Climate Change Incubator
In an exciting new collaboration with The Museum of Science, Flat Earth Theatre is thrilled to announce the launch of the Greenhouse Playlab: a Climate Change Theatre Incubator. Over the course of Flat Earth Theatre’s 2017–2018 season, premier Boston playwrights have worked with dramaturgs, directors, and scientists to develop gripping stories that bring home the personal costs and global reverberations of our current ecological crisis, in settings as varied as Antarctica, the American southwest, islands off the coast of Africa, and the Svalbard Global Seed Bank.
The project culminates on Friday, May 4, 2018 with an evening of excerpt readings at the Museum of Science, followed by free public workshop performances of the new plays Sunday evenings at The Democracy Center in Harvard Square through May and early June, 2018.
