“People of the internet, people of the world, you wanna see your Environment Minister SOLVE some shit, this is the soundtrack…”

What happens when the unstoppable force of climate change meets the immovable object of Australian politics?

Environment Minister Gwen Malkin's plan to stop climate change is rudely interrupted when a group of eco-terrorists storm Australia's Parliament House during a Fleetwood Mac concert. Blending fact and fiction, David Finnigan’s bold new satire is a manic spin on a world on the brink of turmoil.

A daring new play that asks – what would it take to actually stop climate change dead in its tracks? Science? Recycling? Experts? Or maybe: techno, guns and revolution?

Kill Climate Deniers challenges our perceptions and questions the dramatic actions needed to combat climate change.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The play creates a thrilling, almost dangerous theatrical experience where unpredictability reigns and dark humour abounds. TimeOut Sydney highlights how audiences readily accept shocking scenes, including an Environment Minister shooting an activist and then posing for Instagram pictures, illustrating the play’s audacious and provocative style.
