Premiere – 4th June, 2025


You live in a free, independent country — but can you be sure you will tomorrow? We take our rights and freedoms for granted, believing the state will protect them. Yet the state is us. Can you defend yourself against demagoguery and manipulation? The Ukrainian director’s production delivers a stark message: before our eyes, power slips into the hands of moral zeros — people who devour others, monsters. Through the dazzling form of a musical show, the theatre lays bare the absurdity of our choices.
