Kyoto

This isn''t a negotiation. It''s hand to hand combat. 11 December 1997. The Kyoto Conference Centre, 5 a.m. 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 urgent 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, and transferred to @sohoplace, London, in January 2025.
