Grote Mensen

le barbarie & BRONKS (BE)
Drama (with little German spoken language)

Adults work. And children play. Or they go to kindergarten or school. Or they sleep. And while they sleep, adults, the “big people”, have to keep working. Tidying up in the kitchen. Or working on the broken washing machine. Or typing something up on the computer.
But what do adults really do all day while children are away? Do they put the world in order? Do they take an afternoon nap? Or do they mix everything up? Do adults really have everything under control?

Grote Mensen is an absurdly tragic horror comedy about the lives of adults. Four performers enthusiastically fail to plug a dripping hole in the ceiling. With little language and fantastic slapstick, the seemingly controlled world of adults falls apart before the eyes of the children in the audience. And the question remains: who actually cleans up whose mess in the end?
