WunderKinder
teater 90°'s production WunderKinder
is a site-specific theatrical performance about aspiration, fatigue and
resistance in the workplace. Production is made in collaboration with W
A U H A U S and Stage-festival. By mixing design aesthetics with
contemporary working life discourse, WunderKinder investigates the
neoliberal ecosystem, where work seems to have colonized every aspect of
life. In a trendy spa-like office a group of young creatives embody the
current culture of “hard work” that is beginning to take the
proportions of a religious cult. As the pace constantly rises, conflicts
escalate, and it becomes increasingly impossible for anyone to “keep
calm and carry on”.
