Bald Republic is a political satire using extracts and concepts from literary works of Eugene Ionesco and James Joyce and inspired by theatre of the absurd and literary modernism.The play takes place in a political debate where things go extremely south.
People hit others heads and their own and there is much screaming as well as alarm noises. The whole play can be quite alienating.
A script sample is available for this show.
Without taking any specific sides, we explore the absurdity of political debates.
We meet the chiefs – Denis, Justine, Vanya and Bertrand – who are willing to do anything to be proven right.
Absolutely fantastic show. The Joycian Recital had me at the edge of my seat. Brilliant.
