This is a fantastic show - engaging, informative, well written and with a great musical accompaniment. Rarely do you get such depth of scientific knowledge and musical accomplishment combined. Kids and adults alike will benefit from hearing this climate crisis story. A heart warming tale that makes a real impact. Catch it if you can

Absolutely loved it. Very engaging for kids but also entertaining for adults. Performers were great with an important message and a bit of humour thrown in, highly recommend! Probably fine for slightly younger kids aswell as older.

A very interesting and sweet show about young people feeling frustrated with the suffering environment. Songs are funny and thoughtful and the performers very lively and talented. I enjoyed it hugely and think it would suit older kids very well! Worth a watch!
