October 24th 2009 at Södra Teatern, Stockholm.

Twenty-five Swedish artists will go onstage one after another for a total of 350 minutes. The aim is to draw attention to the International Day of Climate Action. The appearances will take turns with minute-long short films with climate change and the individual as a common theme.

Participating artists:

Asha Ali, Robyn, Ane Brun, Louise Hoffsten, Promoe, Tomas Andersson Wij,
Nina Ramsby, Benny Andersson, Elin Ruth Sigvardsson, Emil Jensen, Jaqee,
Kristofer Åström , Loney, Dear, Nicolai Dunger, Deportees, Wendy McNeill,
Tobias Fröberg, Rebekka Karijord, Those Dancing Days, Ossler, Bob Hansson,
The Tiny, Nina Kinert, and others.

The artists who have chosen to participate will appear at Södra Teatern as individuals – not activists – with a mutual wish that we all have to take the climate issue seriously.

Climate change, in one way or another will affect all of us. Yet we don’t speak openly about our feelings concerning out uncertain future. We all tend to handle the situation in different ways. Fighting spirit, angst, ignorance and denial are just a few of the states that we’re in.

No More Lullabies wants to open up for a more straightforward dialogue, man to man. Conversations about climate issues that goes beyond political rhetoric, defence mechanisms and vested interest. In the long run, this dialogue could make the global climate crisis become a subject that we choose to talk about more often in our daily lives and thereby inspires us to take action.

Ane Brun is the initiator of the event. Tällberg Foundation is co-arranger (www.tallbergfoundation.org). The evening will also be the starting point of the long-term project No More Lullabies.

No more lullabies – time to wake up.
