December 11th, 1997. Welcome to the Kyoto Conference Centre. The nations of the world are deadlocked, and 11 hours have now passed since the landmark UN climate conference was supposed to finish. An agreement seems a world away and time is running out. The greatest obstacle to a deal: master strategist and American oil lobbyist, Don Pearlman...
Stephen Kunken stars in Kyoto, which sees Olivier award-winning directors Stephen Daldry and Justin Martin reunite at Soho Place with Good Chance's Artistic Directors and playwrights Joe Murphy and Joe Robertson for this searing, sharp, and darkly comic story of the historic moment when all nations attempted to put their differences aside for the sake of the planet.
Hailed as sheer theatrical magic' (WhatsOnStage), and 'rich and vital' (The i), Kyoto is a powerful production that seats you at the very heart of the action and shows that despite a climate of rapidly rising temperatures, the impossible actually can become possible.
Special Feature: You can be part of that moment with our limited ‘In conference’ seats which allows members of the audience to be one of the delegates in the play.
