Stop me (world pre­mie­re)

A young woman drags herself from mini job to mini job. She actually wants to be an actress, but nobody wants to hear the monologue she’s written. A biotechnology graduate has a 9 to 4 job that consists in her looking as busy as possible; it would be too late now to ask someone what her job actually is. And a building contractor is bewildered when a crowd suddenly gathers to protest against his renovation project. Annika Henrich’s clever and comical debut piece shows people juggling isolation and a longing for love, caught between gentrification and the precariat and struggling to find their place in the world.
