With his life-sized animal puppets stampeding their way across the globe representing nature’s struggle in the face of the climate crisis, Climate Curious’ co-hosts Maryam Pasha and Ben Hurst caught up with playwright, producer, and director, David Lan on how public art and street theatre is a powerful tool to engage mass audiences on climate action. David also shares stories from 18 year tenure as Artistic Director at The Young Vic, to his role with the 12-foot puppet art project of a 10-year-old Syrian refugee girl ‘Little Amal’. Recorded live at Ladbroke Hall in London.
