Some Assembly Theatre Company’s RHYTAG project exists within a growing movement. Young people worldwide — inspired by 16-year-old Greta Thunberg — are raising their voices to demand climate action from world leaders. Some Assembly stood in solidarity with youth climate activists at the September 2019 climate strike in Vancouver, marching alongside an estimated 100,000 people of all ages and backgrounds.
