HOLIDAY ON STAGE

/ last days of luxury

Martin Schick & Damir Todorović (Schweiz, Serbien)

«The days of luxury are not counted yet – however, fewer and fewer people actually get a piece of that cake. The competitive regime creates individual fighters, everyone is striving for success.»

For the theatre performance «HOLIDAY ON STAGE» Schick and Todorović explored the mechanisms of power and the seductive forces of capitalism. On stage they satirically and critically labour through the complexity of the world market. The product «dance» serves as a means of illustration. Together with various performing artists, all coming from different cultural contexts, they play with clichés, quotations and the aesthetic of our everyday life. Their sweeping mixture of highly entertaining elements, shocking facts and real human destinies leads us into a controversial discussion about the future of politics, human economy and cyber feudalism and carries us away into a «real» western movie.
