After 900 performances of the Asylum Monologues, Asylum Dialogues, NSU Monologues, and Mediterranean Monologues, here comes the new play by author and director Michael Ruf.

Droughts, floods, storms. Uninhabitable zones and struggles for distribution are spreading. The window of opportunity for action is getting smaller. The Climate Monologues tell of the global struggles of various people against climate change. They provide insight into how people in different regions of the world are concretely feeling the effects of climate change in their own biographies.

The actors must repeatedly make existential decisions: between staying at home or leaving, between crop failures in the countryside or living as day laborers in the city, between security and identity, between hunger and risk.

The Climate Monologues are documentary theater. Michael Ruf conducts interviews that last several hours, sometimes several days. These interviews are then simply shortened and condensed. Nothing is invented, and the linguistic expression is preserved. Word-for-word, human-centered theater.

After each performance, discussions with the audience take place.

Performance in English with German, Arabic, and French subtitles.
