‘asses.masses’ is a custom video game designed to be played from beginning to end by a live audience, one person at a time. It’s an epic story of a herd of unemployed donkeys trying to get their jobs back. This heroic game puts the control(ler) in its audience’s hands and asks them to discover the space between the work that defines us and the play that frees us.

incl. snacks & drinks

"De Canadese makers achter de live videogame asses.masses slagen er in om je meer dan acht uur lang op het puntje van je stoel te laten zitten – en een live ervaring te bieden die meer dan bijna alle andere theatervoorstellingen als een collectieve ervaring voelt."
