RenewRebels
FOSSIL FUEL SMACKDOWN! IT'S RENEWABLE POWER HOUR!
The RenewRebels, a motley crew of activist clowns, put on a slapstick wrestling battle between Fossil Fuels vs. Renewables. Through physical theatre and playfulness we showed up at climate frontlines to boost morale of activists, act as a decoy for actions or simply to make visions of a fossil free future more accessible, or at least entertaining.
I was the lead on this non-profit experiment but could only have done it with the help from friends Sammy Britton, Nour Alkawaya, Nekane Requejo de Ozamiz, Trixie Beauchamp, Lauren Taylor, Charlie Satow, Alex Cawkwell, Steve Stilwell, Simon Bramwell, Serge and others.

Climate-clown wrestling in mischievous scenarios. With rebel clowning & physical theatre we blur the boundaries between culture & resistance, and hope to communicate the need for a renewable energy transition through the powerful medium of silliness.
