Carton (coming soon: new version)

Carton

A comical tragedy (or a tragic comedy)
about human exploitation.

Globalization, multinationals, consumerism, relocation, social inequalities, mass production, labor exploitation, outrageous hours, minimum wage, inhuman conditions in the factories… Slavery. Millions of people around the world live this every day. Let’s see how, specifically, a “nobody” lives it.

This “nobody”, Aina, works and lives, alone and isolated, at the deepest basement of a factory. Her life is controlled by her tasks, her fussy, tyrannical boss, and her absolute solitude.

Come with us and, through the theater skylight, let’s take a look at this basement full of feelings: hopes and frustrations, delights and sorrows, humor and pain, madness and love, stupidity, desire, fury… Uprising!

Carton is a comical tragedy (or a tragic comedy) about human exploitation.

World Premiere: December, 5th, at Clownin 2012 – International Women’s Clown Festival (Kosmos Theater, Viena, Àustria). Coming soon a new version.
