Igor Cardellini / Tomas Gonzalez

A bank, offices, shopping malls. What do all these mostly less attractive sites tell us about the world we live in and its ideals? With the architecture of these strongholds of capitalism, wage labour and consumption as a starting point, young theatre makers Igor Cardellini and Tomas Gonzalez invite you to join them in exploring these questions. This theatrical guided tour will take you together with a tiny group of other people along well-known sites in Lewenborg which ordinarily seem to escape our attention. Meanwhile, Cardellini and Gonzalez will be simultaneously conducting a different study of their own: how do people react when visiting such sites as a group?

English paper translation available on site.
Visitors will receive an email with instructions how to get there prior to the performance.
