We begin at the end, in 2045--facing down a line of armed security forces at the edge of the Bubbles. And then, we jump back to 2015 and a remote Greek island. An ancient tree nymph recruits the central player in her climate revolution. They begin a dangerous journey.

Launching October 22nd, Metra is an original musical fiction podcast about how we change the world.

The year is 2043. The world is hot, water is scarce, the weather is unpredictable…and the fossil fuel industry continues to thrive. The wealthy are comfortable in their air-purified, cooled, humidified, superbly hydrated Bubble cities. But in a roadside bar on the Outside, an unlikely group of revolutionaries is about to demand a new story.

Starring Tony-nominee Jeannette Bayardelle and a Broadway and NYC theatre cast. Metra weaves ancient myth, transformative magic, and memorable music to tell the story of a dangerous climate future, and the fight for the world we deserve.

Metra: A Climate Revolution with Songs, by The Hartfords — wherever you get your podcasts, October 22nd.
