Fluch der Fabrik

In the organizer's words:

A factory produces non-stop. It is not clear what is being produced, but someone will buy it. The employees make no effort to hide the fact that their work is no fun and seems pointless. They have other dreams and long for the end of the working day - or at least their lunch break. A night-time ligament failure brings the factory to a standstill, the owner is called in and the labor dispute begins ...

The six actors spent a year on a theatrical research project on the subject of work. They asked themselves what is fun and what is annoying about work, what the difference is between work and leisure and tried out how to tell something about themselves on stage. Topics such as pay, strikes and free choice of profession are just as important as negotiating what real, genuine theater actually is.
Based on their personal experiences in the world of work and in the factory system, the players have developed a play that tells the loose story of a factory and interweaves it with their biographical aspects. In the end, factory workers and actors take the action into their own hands, box the big capitalist out of the yard and create their own dream factory with lots of music, song and dance!
