Fire, an original play
Written and Directed by Brandon Fuladi
February 6, 2026
Highlighting the lives of four teenagers as they navigate the trials of modern life, with its often-monotonous rhythm and rigid societal pressures, Fire challenges apathy in the face of climate change and the notion of a powerless young person. Maya, the protagonist, is a typical teenager who, through obstacles both ordinary and extraordinary, must grapple with archaic narratives and an onslaught of online doomerism. The play challenges the fear and catastrophe Maya is fed through her computer, illuminating the idea of hope in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. This performance is written, directed, and performed by local students based on their own experiences and those of their peers.
All proceeds from the performance will benefit the Climate Psychology Alliance, a national organization dedicated to supporting those grappling with mental health challenges in the face of climate change using climate cafes, research, and trained professionals.
