About the performance
UQ Drama students present a play by David Finnigan, directed by Tim Hill.
Kill Climate Deniers is a two-for-one special. On one hand, you’re questioning the politics of climate change. On the other, you’re dropped in the middle of an action-adventure. Parliament House has been taken hostage by eco-terrorists in their attempt to extort the Prime Minister. They want tangible action against climate change — and they want it now. Will the embattled environment minister intervene in time, or perhaps more importantly, should she?
