The Gardener and the Golfer: a one-woman climate crisis play
Advertisement
Mary and Bill are next door neighbours. She’s a regenerative farmer & gardener and he’s a hedge fund manager & golfer. What could go wrong?
About this Event

What the play is about:
Theatre creator Dale Hamilton explores the climate crisis through the lens of two distinct and determined individuals on opposite sides of the environmental fence. Mary and Bill are next door neighbours: she’s a regenerative farmer and avid gardener, and he’s a hedge fund manager and avid golfer. They find themselves in a feud about land use and climate change. Eventually they reach some common ground, realizing that an “us and them” approach is not productive.

Join playwright and actor Dale for a talk-back session with tea and snacks after the show.
