Events › When Wajcha Meets Pachamama

Join us for a film viewing of "When Wajcha Meets Pachamama" and a talk-back with the playwright, Cláudio Carvalhaes. 

The play wrestles with the future of our planet, exposing climate disasters through the lenses of a clown. This clown, named Wajcha, which means orphan in Quechua, goes around the Earth/Pachamama with a rat, Formaggio, experiencing several climate disturbances and responding to it the best way he can. After a long journey, Wajcha discovers he is hurting as much as Pachamama.

There will be time for Q&A with the playwright following the viewing. For ages 12+

This event is part of the Proclaiming Ethics conference and the Evanston Environmental Justice Conversations Series. Presented by Stead Center for Ethics and Values, in partnership with Evanston Public Library.
