She clashes with political decision-makers, is in the front row at climate strikes, publishes commentaries and books: born in Hamburg in 1996, Luisa Neubauer, one of the main representatives of "Fridays for Future" in Germany, is now known far beyond Hamburg and is a major figure in the internationally networked climate protection movement, which is primarily supported by young people. She analyzes the often frustrating climate discourse in a differentiated and tireless manner, but always emphasizes that it doesn't have to be too late. "Act as if everything is at stake!" she writes in her book "Gegen die Ohnmacht". This absolute claim, coupled with a never-ending optimism about the potential of an intelligent protest movement, mobilizes people across generational boundaries.
For the Thalia Theater, Neubauer is teaming up with Ensemble Resonanz to try out a musical interpretation of activism for the first time. How to bring climate and culture together? After the "Speech in E flat major", there will also be an opportunity for the audience to reflect together.
