“What happens when you’re told there’s only 12 years left and it’s the 11th hour?”

12: an urgent love story between generations – and towards the planet we share. 

With a blend of hope, outrage and humor, 12 gives voice to youth with regards to the climate crisis and a future that they’ve inherited. The play is built from conversations with 11 teens, interviews they had with citizens of Ottawa, transcripts from the international COP meetings (Conference of the Parties), words of environmental leaders such as Greta Thunberg, Xuihtezcatl Martinez and Howey Ou, and the Australian high school students who were told by their PM to be “less activist”.
