PLITS PLATS PLOUTS
A Cocktail on the House from Tourism Workers
For most children, summer is the most carefree time of the year. For adults, however, the summer season is a serious matter that requires planning, organization, and money. For some professionals, summer is synonymous with work. Even in exhausting conditions, workers have to hide their fatigue so as not to affect the mood of vacationers, while travelers spend their money on holidays, hoping they will find compensation for the disappointments and fatigue of an entire year.
On stage, the spotlight shines on what usually remains in the shadows of summer: the thoughts that tour guides don’t share with tourists, the staff conversations in kitchen corners, and the provided 20-square-meter rooms that host not only the four waitstaff but also 23 cockroaches.
Are we all equal under the sun, or do we carry our social inequalities along with our luggage to tourist resorts?
After their debut performance, “Wanna Bet? A Show About Gambling in Greece,” Who Am I To returns with their new production, “PLITS PLATS PLOUTS, A Cocktail on the House from Tourism Workers.” Continuing their exploration of form and content, they now tackle the current and pressing issue of tourism, attempting to connect with the present day through the theatrical style of meta-revue.
