MRPA Presents Donny Quixote
A scathing critique of "green" capitalism and "green" technology told through a humorous adaptation of the story of Don Quixote. The Mysterious Rabbit Puppet Army will present two other fun performances and travels with a distro of materials related to the content of the shows.
The very future of life on Earth is in danger. Human activities—from hunting to habitat destruction—have already driven countless species to extinction, and the process is only accelerating. The destruction of the Earth and its sustainable indigenous cultures has led to tragedy in every corner of the globe.
The same corporations who have been driving us to the brink now posture as if they are the cure for the cancer they have caused. They peddle consumer goods as a solution to the devastation they have wrought.
It is not enough to ask politicians and corporations to destroy less wilderness. We need to preserve it all, to recreate lost habitats and reintroduce extirpated predators. We need to stop and reverse the poisoning of our air, water and soil, as well as the modification of life's genetic code.
The tour is being co-sponsored by the Earth First Journal, the voice of the radical environmental movement. http://www.earthfirstjournal.org
