Moeder Aarde
Mother Earth invites the Greek gods to dinner. Hot flashes, mood swings, dripping sweat, and uncontrollable tears: she has it all. The climate crisis is not just our problem—it is a divine emergency. A comedy about the human and divine capacity to make a mess of things.
Creators Victorine Plante (director) and Erik Snel (text) were inspired by a protest sign at a climate demonstration: “My mother is already hot enough.” This evolved into an updated adaptation of Greek mythology. Gods and titans gather at a table to find out who is responsible for Mother Earth’s rising temperature. It is a reflection on good intentions that nevertheless go wrong.
Aluin has been telling compelling stories for 35 years, specializing in Greek mythological tales in a contemporary context.
