From the company behind The Italians in England comes an extraordinary tale about democracy and dictatorship, told through Balinese mask, music and physical theatre with Edoardo Vanoni and Denis Haugh. Cycling through the countryside of a tropical island, an Italian tourist loses his way when his phone battery dies. He enters the home of an old mask maker and from then on a remarkable political story unfolds. This play explores the lure of populism and the common traits shared by dictators, reflecting the political realities shaping our world today. The show is dedicated to Alexei Navalny.
