This paper analyses the intermedial strategies implemented in Steve Waters’ play The Contingency Plan. With its 2009 debut and its 2022 return on the stage, the piece showcases the effects of the melting glaciers and the dangers of delaying an organised counteraction. By intertwining science reports with a gripping plot, Waters presents a dramaturgy that is both based on scientific evidence and imbued with affective meaning, demonstrating how stories that can resonate with the audience have the power to participate in the environmental discourse and effect change.
