By renowned climate activist Josh Fox
A critical report on what we must do to save our democracy….
Tracing the arc of misinformation and propaganda in the United States from 9/11 to the present, theatermaker and Emmy Award–winning and Oscar-nominated filmmaker (Gasland) Josh Fox offers a riveting live solo performance that confronts us with the truth about the climate crisis in a “post-truth” world. Josh Fox traces his personal arc from 9/11 to present day America with chilling proximity—a story that offers both a warning and a way forward for our besieged democracy.
From his experiences as a first responder during 9/11, to his groundbreaking reporting on fracking, to his eye opening eco-flights over the Gulf of Mexico during the BP oil spill, to Hurricane Sandy to Standing Rock and beyond, Josh Fox is an eyewitness to history. The Truth Has Changed tells the story of this terrifying progression of American history from a front row seat.
He is best known as the writer/director/narrator of GASLAND Parts I and II and is the founder and producing artistic director of the International WOW Company. He is internationally recognized as a spokesperson and leader on the issue of fracking and extreme energy development. Through his complex, funny and dramatic storytelling, Josh portrays a dizzying confusing landscape in which The Truth has Changed.
