The Capital

Details

Watch, as if from the window of a bus, as the big city glides by. See lives converge and diverge as rich and poor share the same streets, each pursuing their own contrasting ambitions.

If you ever feel you have to run in order to stand still, or see others gliding through life while you struggle to survive, or experience a relationship drifting apart, or a goal retreating as past as you advance on it – then you will recognise life in The Capital.

Performed without words to a stunning soundtrack, The Capital uses moving walkways to create an extraordinary flowing feat of visual story telling. It turns themes of financial and social inequality into a beautiful, thoughtful and emotionally gripping experience.

Produced by Stan’s Cafe in association with Birmingham Repertory Theatre. Inspired by ideas from University of Warwick Department of Economics.
