Does work really define who we are?
How well does it meet our expectations?
How much weight does it bear on our lives and on the choices we make?

A participatory performance on working men and women, a choir of instances and inquiries.

A public call, tens of workers which respond and a chorus. The “work” like fil rouge. Work as an aspiration, a forced choice, a source of sustenance, but most of all as a motor which derails trajectories, defines self esteem and personal beliefs, and which determines where and who with we spend most of or time. But does work truly define who we really are? How well does it meet out expectations? How much weight does it bare on our life and the choices we make? Does comprehending happiness or individual dissatisfactions help us evaluate collective wellbeing? The concatenation of stories becomes an investigative instrument to transform the collective experience into a shared narration, a hymn thought as a total art piece to re-hug a communities wish, and, through theatre, find new forms of representing reality.
