Description: A panel for artists, activists, and changemakers to talk about climate crisis performance and Jewish theatre — the importance of it; and the role of Judaism within it all. Panelists will discuss the need for new forms to meet this crisis. Attendees will learn how to engage and involve theatre spaces and theatre companies more so we can all start thinking systematically about programming work around the crisis into seasons, and learn ways to approach climate saving techniques in production.
