Beyond the Nonsense Play is a new and condensed update to 'The Nonsense Play'. It throws a critical spotlight on the zeitgeist of contemporary Western culture, including our ideas about climate change, sustainability, who we are, social constructs, fairness, polarisation, where science is going, and the human brain. Not least, it challenges the societal norm in its notions about our humanity and spirituality, sexuality and love.
