IST MEIN MIKRO AN?

In the organizer's words:

IS MY MICRO ON?
by Jordan Tannahill

translated from the English by Kirstin Lea Hess and Frank Weigand

1 hour No break

Age recommendation: from 13 years

With her silent protest in front of the Swedish parliament building in 2018, 15-year-old Greta Thunberg initiated a global movement. Fridays for Future strikes have been taking place around the world for three years now. Students and young adults demonstrate for a future worth living and against inaction in the face of a climate catastrophe that is already happening. Playwright Jordan Tannahill was inspired by Greta Thunberg's speeches for the play "Is my mic on?" and has written a declaration of war and a declaration of love at the same time. 17 young women make their voices heard, address humanity's most pressing problem and ask: At what age does political action actually begin? Can there be justice between the generations? How can each individual be convinced to stand up for the future of this world?

With the kind support of the Friends of the Residenztheater e.V. and the Hubertus Altgelt Foundation.
