VINES x NEW(TO)TOWN COLLECTIVE

Zero Heroes

The Zero Squad is an unlikely group of heroes that believe they can save the planet and bring emissions down to 0%. By day they are Eco-Heroes but by night they are just ordinary people struggling to reconcile their own relationship to the climate crisis. Part confessional, part open debate, and all clowning, this performance explores the complexities and hypocrisies of trying to live sustainably in the current climate crisis. We ask ourselves and the audience, “when are you an Eco-Hero and when are you an Eco-Villain? What’s your personal battle? Day of the show, audiences are welcome to contribute at any time their anonymous “Green Triumph” and/or “Eco-Shame” to the show’s backdrop installation.
Presented by Vines Art Festival 2019 at David Lam Park.
