Red Line

Info

A show about exaggeration, abuse, and excess, reflecting a society characterized by relentless turmoil and frenetic activity often culminating in burnout. Excess accompanies us everywhere, whether we are talking about an excess of shyness, power, hatred, thinking, loving, working, or loneliness. And we all know it is too much when we cross the red line. The show’s concept was born during a period of near burnout that we experienced before the creative process. We also turned our attention to those around us and noticed the effects of excess, so we thought we would outline them in a show where we want to see what lies beyond exceeding acceptable limits. “Red Line” is about a certain “too much” that has slipped away, about all that we could no longer overlook, about what we are all living.
