Een groter verhaal - Bureau Vergezicht | Theater Rotterdam

Theater en toneel

We treat the earth as a supermarket and give animals fewer rights than cruise ships. Now that the shelves are becoming empty, we are trying to maintain our lifestyle with technological solutions. But perhaps we still have something to finish: decolonizing skies, waters, animals and nature.

In A Greater Story Bureau Verzicht, together with actress Romana Vrede, explores what a decolonized earth looks like. Not through outrage, but with humor, imagination and rich language. A declaration of love to the world and a search for how to stay with it.

Writer Anoek Nuyens about A Greater Story:

“In recent decades, it has mainly been scientists and politicians who have set the tone of the climate debate. This has yielded a lot of valuable research. Now it's time to take over and translate that knowledge into grand and compelling stories that people will shape their identity and live by. Stories have a transformative power, because with a good story you not only describe the world, you also prescribe the world. It's time for us to tell new stories.”
