A mango tree is about to be cut
The poet is pained
The person next door sips on Maaza looking outside the window.
A young boy waits with a bag for that bottle to earn his money
A turtle from the pond nearby watches.
A bureaucrat makes a decision
So many moments – each affecting the other, affecting the planet.

Under Pressure is a theatre piece that examines Climate Change, consumerism, indigenous wisdom and the politics of nature. The performance presents perspectives – the policy maker, the rag picker, the environmentalist, and the 8000 year old tree as a sensory montage – surreal and poetic.

Physical Theatre, Movement, poetry and storytelling come together to create moments, montages and moods!
