Short description

Big Structure is a tragi-comic performance for five moving actors.   The play is inspired by the location: a real door of a real building in the city. The buillding spews out five actors who play out (and play around with) the familiar rituals of the working masses.
On a soundtrack of electronic beats and ethnic chorus, the actors perform in trios, duos and solo,  but first and foremost, in chorus.  A herd.
And the performance evolves from the highly recognizable to the highly absurd.  As the audience looks on with the eyes of an anthropologist, five humans on a heavy dose of daily stress fly high and suffer the consequences...


Big Structure is a street play inspired by the works of Jacques Tati, of Samuel Beckett, and the magic surrealism of Gabriel Garcia Marquez.  An absurd silent movie, performed live in the street.

Serious Suits.  Dedication.  Jealousy.  Intrigue.  Five humans confronted with an enormous mission:  navigate passage through the madness of a working day, armed only with black briefcases and small breakable hearts.

Big Structure is a movement theatre piece, performed outdoors on location, for five actors and a sound technician.
