A rollercoaster ride of fear and laughter, at the end of which you will be left with very few answers and a lot of questions...

"There are more dead people than living. And their numbers are increasing. The living are getting rarer." - Eugene Ionesco -

A strange epidemic is taking away the inhabitants of a small town killing an astonishing number of people and the town is transformed from an ordinary provincial suburb into a maelstrom of paranoia, horror, and death.

"Death, drawing ever nearer, exposes all human flaws." - Eugene Ionesco -

"Marinoni takes on Ionesco and creates an energetic, crackly paced, surreal piece with some stunning visual tricks topped by a disturbing coup de theatre finish" - Time Out review 2003 -

An Illuminating play about plagues: Swine Flu, AIDS, Monkey Epilepsy, Dolphin Syphilis, and all other man made diseases created solely for religious, political, and financial gains. A rollercoaster ride of fear and laughter, at the end of which you will be left with very few answers and a lot of questions...

"It is not the answer that enlightens, but the question." - Eugene Ionesco -
