Description | In this innovative production, the audience experiences the show across two simultaneous planes in alternative spaces, one of which is the Council Room of the Masca Theatre. These spaces are connected almost continuously through live multimedia, offering viewers two different perspectives of the story that they can choose between and switch at will, creating a unique theatrical dynamic.
Beginning with Ibsen's themes, the play delves into a society where moral dilemmas and lack of accountability are prevalent. Unlike Ibsen's characters who are forced into immoral choices by impossible situations, this production highlights a world where consequences are absent, and responsibility is ignored, leading to stagnation and unresolved issues.
As local elections approach, the mayor is confident in his re-election. But a few days before the vote, a tragic accident occurs, causing damage and fatalities. The media goes into a frenzy, and the mayor's advisors debate fiercely about who should take responsibility. Although the mayor isn't directly involved, he has overlooked certain issues, and now the victims demand accountability. Survivors, the mayor's rival, and the media all weigh in, each defending their perspective. This performance explores what public good truly means, who it targets, and who is responsible when it's violated. |
