In a year of seismic political shifts where political elites and the public alike are more polarised than ever before, Young Everyman Playhouse challenges its audience with another timely political satire, The Environmentalists. The production will see YEP performing at the Invisible Wind Factory for the first time from Wednesday 15th to Saturday 18th March.
YEP responds to a chain of unexpected events that have undermined the status quo and the stability of the world, from the 2008 financial crash to austerity Britain, Brexit and Donald Trump. The Establishment examines where power lies in today’s society, hiding in the shadows and in plain sight, in the lobbies of Westminster to the newsrooms, boardrooms and trading rooms of Fleet Street and the City and what links these worlds.
