Ora et labora per hora

‘This performance questions the idea of work as an ontological truth, exploring why society assumes it as a fundamental pillar of identity and human existence. Through real testimonies collected in interviews, the work gives voice to diverse experiences about the relationship between personal life and work, revealing tensions, contradictions and desires to break with the established work model. Through the body, the word and the stage space, the audience is invited to reflect on what it really means to work and whether it is possible to imagine other ways of living’.
