"I'm a scientist. I don't 'believe' in anything."

The study of climate science is the cool degree at the university where Dr Diane Cassell is a lead academic in Earth Sciences. At odds with the orthodoxy over the causes of climate change, she finds herself increasingly vilified and is forced to ask if the issue is becoming political as well as personal. Could the belief in anthropogenic global warming be the most attractive religion of the 21st century. What evidence do we need before deciding on policy?

Winner of the 2011 Evening Standard Theatre Best New Play Award.

Portrait

Richard Bean

Richard Bean is one of Britain's most exciting and prolific playwrights. Between 1989 and 1994 he worked as a stand-up comedian and went on to be one of the writers and performers of the sketch show Control Group Six (BBC Radio), which was nominated for a Writers Guild Award. His first full length play, Of Rats and Men was staged at the Canal Cafe and went on to Edinburgh. He adapted it for radio for the BBC and it was nominated for a Sony Award. His breakthrough play Toast found critical acclaim at the Royal Court Theatre in 1999. He has also translated and adapted Moliere's The Misanthrope. His recent play One Man, Two Guvnors premiered at The National Theatre in May 2011, to a string of five star reviews, before transferring to the West End and Broadway. One Man, Two Guvnors also won the Critics' Circle and Richard became the first writer to win the Evening Standard Award for Best Play for two plays, The Heretic and One Man, Two Guvnors in 2011.

Pressestimmen

"It takes a rare talent to create firstclass comedy out of a subject as fraught with seriousness as the environment. But that is what Richard Bean has managed."--Paul Callan, "Daily Express"
"Bean's writing scintillates. Pulsing with shrewd humour, it's risque and linguistically rich. There are some blissfully surreal touches..."The Heretic" is clever, imaginative and entertaining theatre"--Henry Hitchens, "Evening Standard"
"Painfully witty"--Libby Purves, "The Times"
""The Heretic," proves an absolutely corker, funny, provocative and touching, and absolutely resolute in its refusal to lapse into the apocalyptic gloom that usually attends this subject. "The Heretic" is a play on the side of life and optimism, with a faith in humanity that goes markedly against the grain of current thinking."--Charles Spencer, "Daily Telegraph"
"Provocative, funny, contrarian and stimulating... pugnacious and entertaining. What starts as a mordant satire ends in a warm glowr
