When the pandemic hit last spring, James Gordon was in the midst of a successful tour of his one-person show, The Emergency Climate Musical: a theatrical investigation of this important issue that seems to have taken a back seat during COVID.

Filled with original songs, compelling videos, images, stories, rants, laughter, tears, audience participation, and some concrete ways to move forward, James had been entertaining, informing, and provoking discussion with this show since first launching in 2019.

A long-time social and environmental activist, James advocates for climate action both as a career folksinger and in his “side gig” as a City Councillor in Guelph (he’s fond of the term Poetician) and is a member of the National Climate Leadership Caucus.

Now, there’s renewed interest in sharing the important content of The Emergency Climate Musical. To that end James and his team have retooled The ECM to present via Zoom, incorporating and adapting all the elements of the in-person show.

Follow along as he outlines his premise that we need a total political, societal and economic make-over to face the incredible challenge ahead.
