Climate activists halt Jeremy Strong, Michael Imperioli Broadway play ‘An Enemy of the People’ mid-show
NY Post
A trio of climate protestors became the enemy of the audience on Broadway.
At Thursday night’s performance of “An Enemy of the People,” starring Jeremy Strong and Michael Imperioli, three environmental activists interrupted the start of the second act with shouts of “no theater on a dead planet!”
The Post witnessed one person walk onto the stage of the Circle In The Square Theatre on W. 50th Street, where the “Succession” and “Sopranos” stars were in the middle of a tense scene.
The man spoke briefly before being escorted off by security and cast members.
“I am very, very sorry to interrupt your night and this amazing performance. I am a theater artist,” he said.
“The oceans are rising. It will swallow this city and this entire theater whole. I am putting my career on the line because we are not doing anything about this crisis. The water is coming for us!”
