“Material” is a two-act ideological fantasy that reflects on the inconsistencies of the

modern world and its problems. Two actors summarize convictions and shuffle systems, trying to find the synthesis of all their ills. The show develops around two characters who are looking for a base to base their ideas on. The issue is that when trying to define them, they encounter difficulties and inconsistencies that divide them between the potency of ideas and action. This show was designed based on the book “Correction” by Thomas Bernhard. Our interpretation coincides with the author’s, but allows us to make mistakes on our own.
