«Everything that one doesn’t know about money because nobody will ever tell you, and besides, it is best not to know anything because if you were to know, it would be worse». This is the subtitle of Money!, the latest work by Zoo Théâtre which won the Critics Award 2014 for best performance, with a best actor’s award for Jerôme de Falloise. The starting point is very simple: with a backdrop of the
post-2008 economic crisis, a man enters a bank and asks where his money has gone… After having studied words and attitude of the financial world, the four actors take on multiple roles, and by disassembling all the banking mechanisms, give rise to a veritable collage of music, video, and a “choreography on wheels”. The result of a collective writing project based on documentary evidence, Money! decodes finance as if a foreign language and light-heartedly attempts to give a human face to a theme that we hear of daily: what happens to the money that we deposit in our bank accounts every day?
