Call Cutta in a Box

'Germany's influential theatre collective Rimini Protokoll works with real people and situations, smashing boundaries between journalism, performance and political action'. (Sydney Festival 2012)

It’s all about you and the person at the end of the phone.
 

You open a door and a phone is ringing. You pick up the phone and a person with a strange accent strikes up a conversation. The person seems to know the room you are sitting in, even though they are 10,000km away.

Reviews
"Rimini Protokoll have developed a satisfying, innovative one-on-one format that amuses in itself" NZ Herald
 

“In my roundup of 2009’s best plays, I mentioned that “the best productions resonate far beyond the theater, changing the way you think about your life. Call Cutta in a Box does that." - TC Daily Planet

Video reviews here and here

Germany’s reality theatre superstars Rimini Protokoll bring their transcontinental phone conversation to Auckland after touring festivals in Europe, Asia, Africa and the USA. They are purveyors of documentary theatre, exploring a theatre of performers who are not actors but experts or specialists in their particular spheres of life - professionals of a theatre of the real world.
