After the workshop in Lyon the Finnish children built their own future world into a performance.

REVIEWS

Huvudstadsbladet 20.3.2017, Isabella Rothberg Teaterredaktör:

” Under en timmes tid får publiken chansen att ta del av deras syn på framtiden, både hoppfulla och nedstämda scenarier där krig och miljöförstörelse utgör hoten, medan veganism och global solidaritet presenteras som möjliga vägar ur krisen. Klokt, sympatiskt och finstämt!”
