Finding The Path Forward In A Divided Nation

“Donald J. TRUMP YOU’RE FIRED!” Wouldn’t it be nice If the story going forward from this glorious statement was all about frolicking in the halls of congress with AOC and The Squad, cheering them on as they boldly write new policy that makes America a cleaner, greener, safer place to live for everyone? But that is clearly not the story going forward. Over 70 million of our fellow Americans wanted a second term for the now terminated Don. They liked what that horrible man-like creature was doing and wanted more of it.

How many of these Americans supported his open and repeated approval of actual white supremacists, of encouraging violence against journalists, and of all his other atrocious actions and behaviors? And how many otherwise decent people voted for him out of fear of what they were told the “radical left” would do to America?

Replace your Gas Appliances by 2035

By Angela Deegan

Fast forward to the year 2035 in San Diego. We’ve achieved our goal of a 100% clean power supply. All our electricity needs are supplied by carbon-free power. We’re proclaiming we’re a carbon-free city. But half the energy in our homes is still from burning natural gas?  

Half of California residential energy use is “natural gas” - a fossil fuel. If in 2035 we’re still using gas for space and water heating in our homes, we will have failed. We will have missed a huge opportunity to tackle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and worsening climate extremes - which we could easily have done by switching our gas appliances to electric.

Good Trouble:About the Show

Good Trouble borrows its title from the incredible words of John Lewis and explores the youth activism that is spurring significant social and political change in our country. Using a combination of interviews with local community organizers and material drawn from existing media sources, this world premiere explores prominent social and protest movements of the last few years. Fusing verbatim dialogue with original music, poetry, and audience interaction, participants will ‘perform a protest’ while listening to this audioplay. 

Though there will be no live performers, audiences will gather to experience the recorded performance synchronously, using theatre as a medium of communal expression. Physical events will be held in public, outdoor spaces in partnership with other local organizations so that audiences may embody protest and civil disobedience while listening to the next generation of community leaders and activists.

Participation is free. However, audiences are asked to provide their own headphones and a smartphone (or equivalent device) with an internet connection. A link will be provided via email so that audience members may access the recorded performance.

Physical distancing measures will be maintained at all in-person events, and audiences are expected to provide their own face masks. For more information about what to expect, please review the FAQsincluded on this page.

For anyone who is unable to participate in a physical event, the performance on November 1 will be simultaneously livestreamed so that individuals may participate from the comfort and safety of their own homes. Follow us on social media for additional information and links to the livestream.

This show includes some mature language and is recommended for ages 12 & up. ( more info )
