A Theatre Show (2023)
A play from Marco Biasioli and Precarious Theatre exploring the challenges faced by contemporary artists and the lengths they are prepared to go to in order to produce art. Centered around four theatre makers who decide the only logical way to fund the performance of their work is to become criminals and seize the means of fame, A Theatre Show wonders whether art is really worth the sacrifice.
