What Do We Talk About When We Talk About Economy? / Vad Vi Pratar Om När Vi Pratar Om Ekonomi? / 2018

Adapted by Stefan Åkesson from Yanis Varoufakis’ book “Talking to My Daughter About the Economy,” the show turns the history of money, debt and power into a performance built for a young audience.

Directed by Anja Suša, it walks children through why the world runs on economics without talking down to them — treating them as capable of following, and questioning, how the system actually works.

The production premiered at Backa Teater in Gothenburg, Sweden, on December 7, 2018.
