The Blue Room Theatre is in Perth, Western Australia, the most isolated city on any continent, anywhere on Earth.

The project deals with eco-anxiety, particularly among young people, and it’s getting good reviews.
“We’re walking backwards to mystery across the rising seas.” That’s my reworking of Australia’s Spike Milligan’s Goon Show quip. Recent Australian productions of the theatre classics point out that the world is doing just that: walking into the unknown future with past strategies that are highly unlikely to solve the climate crisis.
