Climate Action
We understand that we are living through a Climate Emergency that is the result of the patriarchal, colonial, extractivist structures that we live under. We aim to empower people and stories that positively impact our natural environment and the society we live in.

WRITE AND READ PLAYS ABOUT THE CLIMATE
On December 20th, 2019, Neworld along with fellow Progress Lab companies and collaborators Electric Theatre, Playwrights Theatre Centre (PTC), rice & beans theatre and Rumble, hosted a gathering as part of the 2019 Climate Change Theatre Action which included readings of a few plays including Dust written by Neworld’s Senior Artist Marcus Youssef, as well as Yvette Nolan’s Breathing Space, A Letter From the Ocean by Caridad Svich and Kamil Haque’s The Olde Woman Who Lived in a Shoe.
We Love Talking About It
We make the conversation about climate change a regular part of the focus on every project from the outset, considering ways to reduce waste and emissions. Got an idea that would help Neworld reduce its fossil fuel footprint? Get in touch with us!
