Beschreibungen
It's not a negotiation, it's hand to hand combat.
11 December 1997
The Kyoto Conference Centre, 5am
The nations of the world are in deadlock. Eleven hours have passed since the UN's landmark climate conference should have ended. Time is running out. And agreement feels a world away.
Their prize: the world's first legally binding emissions targets. Their obstacle: American oil lobbyist and master strategist, Don Pearlman.
Kyoto is the breathless tale of a moment when, finally, the impossible seemed possible. It opened at the Swan Theatre, Stratford-upon-Avon, in June 2024, in a co-production between Good Chance and the RSC.

Joe Murphy grew up in Leeds and Joe Robertson grew up in Hull. In 2015, they established Good Chance in the 'Jungle' refugee and migrant camp in Calais. Their first play, The Jungle, based on their experience there, was a sell-out West End and international hit. Good Chance also co-produced The Walk with Little Amal in 2021.
