A tragicomic dystopia about the fall of the world as a live staged audio-play by Carina Reich and Bogdan Szyber.

In a sound studio, five foley artists stage everything from ecological collapse, planetary destruction, bile duct physiology and junk food travel through the gastrointestinal tract. They are based on the fable of Narrskeppet – the fools’ shoot, with a deaf, full and confused captain and a crew of panicky fools drifting towards their demise. All sounds are created in the old-fashioned way with wind machines, fresh vegetables or cellophane. Memories of war, extinction, HC Andersen’s tales and Godzilla’s rescue of the world are reproduced in 4-channel stereo sound.
