What is this? A theater performance, a social satire, a chaotic journey through contradictions, a game, a celebration of our ruins? Or none of the above?
“The Zipper of This Fckng World” is a meeting point of a Swiss Venus and a Bulgarian Dionysus, trying to make sense of the scale of our privileges. Through exploring genres and jumping in between fun and boredom, we are trying to hold together the pillars of our malfunctioning world.
But don’t worry, it is not that deep, actually.
This is an event that will tell you nothing. Unless there is something you want to hear.
